This article examines Shaykh Da'ud al-Fatani's Munyat al-Musalli, a treatise on prayer, and how it provided a commentary upon shifting ideas of power, social practice, and legitimacy as building blocks in an emerging Islamic moral order. Promulgated by displaced Patani Malay refugees and pilgrims who studied with al-Fatani in Mecca and who later returned to Southeast Asia, this study examines transregional Malay world trajectories in the 19th century prior to the rise of high colonialism. Networks of scholars and students travelled between Mecca and Southeast Asia throughout that century, bearing texts and teachings to those who could not make the journey. Thus, a transformative Islamic discourse, forged in Arabia by Malay-speakers, returned to the archipelago and became a foundational text at the emerging pondok (Islamic schools). Within this milieu, Munyat al-Musalli, served as a guide to prayer and the intimate relationship the dedicated faithful forged with God – a personal journey that was aimed at transforming not only their spiritual being, but also their impact on the temporal world
