Abstract

Banten is an area that is well known for its religious identity and local culture. Behind the strong teachings of Islam in Banten, this area has long historical roots related to the Islamization process. It is unique and very rich in historical resources because it lies between the two main traditions of the archipelago, standing between the Javanese tradition and the tradition of the Malay trading places. The purpose of writing this article is to describe the process of Islamization in Banten and the fall of the Sunda Kingdom of Pajajaran, which was later replaced by the Sultanate of Banten. The research method used in this research uses a qualitative-descriptive historical approach. Manuscripts, chronicles, archives and documents are the primary sources in reconstructing this research. The results of this research, among other things, prove that the Islamization process in Banten used a soft approach with the central figures Syarif Hidayatullah and Maulana Hasanuddin, besides that the fall of the Pajajaran Kingdom was motivated by the factor of the Banten Sultanate's attack on the Pajajaran Kingdom
