This study, in the process of data analysis, employs a descriptive qualitative approach. The primary data source are several religious figures in Central Kalimantan, with the criteria of clerical figures who have a congregation/followers, at least 10 years in preaching in the community and have broad insights from various aspects and mastery of the main Islamic teachings. Based on the observations, it is evident that religious leaders, in carrying out their functions in the realm of politics/political literacy, are still few. This is evidenced by some existing religious leaders who still speak at the level of Islamic law, family/marriage issues and personal practices. Based on the observations conducted, it was shown that religious figures, in carrying out their functions in the political/literary sphere, are still few, as evidenced by some religious characters still speaking on the subject of Islamic law, family/marriage issues and practices of a personal nature.
