Abstract

Islamic literature has served as an important medium for expressing tawhid, spirituality, and Muslim cultural identity across diverse societies. This study examines the historical development of Islamic literature in Arabic and Indonesian traditions by comparing their aesthetics, themes, and Islamization strategies. Using a comparative literary approach and descriptive-qualitative library research, the study analyses poetry, prose, hikayat, suluk, and modern Islamic literary works from both traditions. The findings show that Arabic Islamic literature evolved from classical Sufi poetry into contemporary ideological narratives marked by theological complexity, while Indonesian Islamic literature developed through cultural acculturation reflected in hikayat, gurindam, and adaptive popular literature. Although both traditions share transcendental orientations and function as instruments of Islamic dissemination, they differ in aesthetic expression, symbolic structure, and the intensity of Sufi influence. The originality of this study lies in its comparative mapping of the historical and aesthetic intersections between Arabic and Indonesian Islamic literature, contributing to Islamic cultural literacy and cross-cultural literary studies.

Abstract

This study examines the textual relationship between the Arabic Maulid manuscript Syaraf al-Anām and its Gorontalonese Kitabi lo Dikili, a relationship that has not been systematically analyzed in previous research. Existing studies tend to focus either on Arabic Maulid texts or on local ritual manuscripts, leaving a gap in understanding how a canonical Arabic composition is reshaped through vernacular, performative, and paratextual adaptation within Indonesian ritual contexts. The study employed a qualitative comparative approach using two primary manuscripts and direct observation of the Modikili ceremony in Gorontalo. Data include Arabic and Pegon-script texts, which are analyzed through close reading and coded using Kristeva’s intertextuality and Genette’s transtextuality to identify structural, linguistic, and paratextual correspondences. The findings show three major patterns. First, Kitabi lo Dikili revoices its Arabic source through vernacular translation, condensed phrasing, and culturally embedded metaphors. Second, the manuscript introduces 62 jabu refrains and distinctive Pegon orthographic features that function as paratextual cues for oral performance. Third, ritual observation demonstrates that communal recitation sustains the authority and continuity of the text as living heritage. These results highlight how Islamic devotional literature circulates across linguistic and ritual environments through creative adaptation. The study concludes that examining Arabic and vernacular Maulid manuscripts together provides a more integrated understanding of textual continuity, localization, and the dynamics of Islamic literary heritage in Indonesia.
