Studies of local interpretations of the archipelago continue to develop, but a number of works by regional scholars still do not receive adequate academic attention, one of which is KH's Tafsir Al-Bayan Fi Ma'rifati Ma'ani al-Qur'an. Shodiq Hamzah Usman, caretaker of the Ash-Shodiqiyah Islamic Boarding School in Semarang. This commentary was written during the Covid-19 pandemic (2020–2021), covering a complete interpretation of 30 juz using Javanese Chromo Latin as a writing medium. This article aims to examine two main aspects: KH's profile and intellectual background. Shodiq Hamzah, as well as the interpretation of tanzih and anti-anthropomorphism in Q.S. Al-A'raf verse 54, using a descriptive-analytical approach. The results of the study show that KH. Shodiq Hamzah, through the ijmali method and the adabi-ijtima'i pattern, interprets the verse with the principle of tanzih which is in line with the Ash'ariyah understanding, namely shifting the literal meaning of "bersemayam" (istawa) to the figurative meaning (takwil) in the form of power (istila'/mulkan), in order to avoid the society from an anthropomorphistic understanding of Allah. The delivery of theological messages through simple narratives in Javanese has proven to be effective communicatively, but on the other hand it reduces doctrinal precision and limits the reach of the message of faith only to those who understand the Javanese language and culture.
