Abstract

This article provides description of the social history and dynamics in Muslim community of Riam Panjang, a Muslim village in the Interior of Kapuas Hulu, West Kalimantan. Riam Panjang Village and the Malay people in that Village have gone through drastic changes since the 1970s. There were two periods of significant physical changes; the period prior to the 1990s, and after the 1990s. Between the two periods, it was marked with the road construction across the South in the 1990s that connects Pontianak – Sintang – Putussibau. The road has brought changes to the village. The old village was abandoned and the residents began to to form new settlements. Houses built in the new residential area have also changed. The road is also encouraging the mobility of people, making them very open. There are 4 periods in a long process of social change in Riam Panjang: the 1970s when the community members still lived in the fields, the late 1980s when they began to settle down, the 1990s when they began to come into contact with development especially the construction of the road, and the 2000s when the global cultural hegemony started to shift the local culture. Some forms of local wisdom were gone with the change.

Abstract

Ritual multilingualism in Islamic communities is often viewed as syncretic, hybrid, or acculturative. Such forms rarely reflect an indexical hierarchy of language use. This study examines how linguistic hierarchy is organized within the Ulu Kapuas Malay or Melayu Ulu Kapuas (MUK) incantations of West Kalimantan, Indonesia. The study draws on 72 incantation texts categorized by the community as tawar, cuca, ilmu, and jayau, supported by in-depth interviews with custodians of the MUK cultural traditions, as well as contextual field documentation. The data were coded according to language choice (MUK, Arabic, and Indonesian) and structural position within the ritual text (opening, core, and closing), and then analyzed qualitatively to identify recurrent functional patterns in ritual performance. The interpretation focuses on how these patterned distributions index religious authority, cultural legitimacy, and communicative mediation. The findings show that ritual multilingualism in this corpus is not an eclectic mixture but a structured semiotic hierarchy. MUK consistently serves as the performative core of ritual action and grounds it in emic cosmology. Arabic appears primarily in the opening and closing formulas of the incantations, serving to frame the rituals and sacralizing and legitimizing in ritual. Meanwhile, Indonesian functions more peripherally as a narrative and mediating code, occasionally supporting communicative clarity without displacing the ritual role of the MUK. By demonstrating that local efficacy and Islamic legitimacy are jointly produced through distinct linguistic roles, this study enhances the socio-linguistic understanding of the relationship between language and religion from the perspective of local communities.
