摘要：This paper aims to reveal the process of syncretization between immanent aspects and transcendentalbeliefs that exist in fishing communities, especially in Bontosua Island. The data were collected from the Fishermenusing in-depth interview and observation techniques of their daily activities. The data obtained were categorized,reduced, analyzed and interpreted using phenomenological approach. The results indicate that the syncretizationbetween immanent aspects in the form of animistic and dynamistic beliefs and Islam is manifested in incantationritual using local languages (Buginese and Makassarese) and the language of Qur’an. Both of them are used beforeleaving for the sea, at the time of catching fish, and during particular rituals.
