The article explores the involvement of bilingual texts comprising a source and its interlinear translation in Islamic educational practices in 19th- and 20th-century Sumatra. Such texts occur among the so-called kitab kuning, materials dealing primarily with the principles of Islamic faith, jurisprudence, and ethics that have been traditionally used for teaching in Indonesia's Islamic schools. Written in classical Arabic, these texts are sometimes provided with translations to Malay or other languages between the lines. The article addresses two cases demonstrating occurrence of this practice in manuscripts containing Islamic doctrinal texts that were often used for teaching beginners: an anonymous versified 'aqīdah originating from late 19th-century Aceh and a copy of Umm al-barāhīn by al-Sanūsī (d.1490), from Palembang of around the same period. The manuscripts under discussion appear to demonstrate different types of interlinear translation from Arabic to Malay, i.e. phrase-by-phrase and word-by-word. The article argues that both types combine literality with interpretation, which allows the assumption that interlinear translation was used as a tool for teaching both the Arabic language and the basics of Islamic doctrine.

The idea of keywords was introduced in Raymond Williams' seminal Keywords. A Vocabulary of Culture and Society (1976), and has since had a profound influence on research in multiple fields. This article explores what the idea of keywords might contribute to the study of interlinear translations from Arabic into Javanese. The interlinear translation, which presents an Arabic text with a word-for-word Javanese translation appearing between its lines, is a space where languages, beliefs, and entire histories encounter one another on the page. Taking as my example the 1864 interlinear Babad Maulud (a Javanese translation of the Arabic Maulid Syaraf al-Anām , recited on the Prophet Muhammad's birthday), I suggest that despite the Javanese translator's overall literal translation strategy which attempted to duplicate the original, he or she decided to add "Javanese keywords" at particular points in the translation, with such exceptions revealing contemporary Javanese understandings of social etiquette, identity and genealogy.

This work provides a carbon dating report of Or.7056 kept at Leiden University Library, a Persian anthology of poems with Malay interlinear translations found in Aceh. The common point raised in all former studies of this manuscript deals with its antiquity, which has the potential to increase our knowledge about Malay classical orthography, Malay familiarity with the Persian language and literary sources, and development of interlinear translations in the Malay Archipelago. Here, further textual and literary analysis will be discussed, including a rare and obsolete term, kutaha. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
