Abstract: This article aims to explore the role of mosques as centers for religious development within the Serawai Tribe community in South Bengkulu, focusing on the cultural da'wah approach. Mosques function not only as places of worship but also as social and educational spaces for the local community. Through a cultural approach, the da'wah conducted in these mosques strives to integrate Serawai customary values with Islamic teachings, thereby fostering harmony between local traditions and religion. This study examines the da'wah strategies employed by religious leaders to convey Islamic teachings relevant to the cultural context of the Serawai community. Additionally, the article analyzes various religious development programs in mosques, such as study circles, sermons, and religious education, and how these programs contribute to strengthening the faith, worship, and morals of the congregation. The findings reveal that a cultural da'wah approach, which respects local traditions, plays a significant role in reinforcing the community's attachment to Islamic teachings without marginalizing the customary values deeply rooted in the Serawai Tribe.
