https://journal.uii.ac.id/IJIIS <p>The Indonesian Journal of Interdisciplinary Islamic Studies (IJIIS), published biannually by the Doctoral Program in Islamic Law, Faculty of Islamic Studies Universitas Islam Indonesia, serves as a platform for intellectual exchanges and interdisciplinary studies on various aspects of Islam including, but not limited to, theology, law, education, economy and politics and how they are historically and contingently embedded, expressed and articulated in a variety of historical contexts. The Journal welcomes contributions from scholars and researchers of various disciplinary backgrounds in the form of original (theoretical and empirical) research articles on various issues related to Islam in both its normative and historical dimensions.</p> en-US supriyanto.abdi@uii.ac.id (Supriyanto Abdi) yuliandriansyah@uii.ac.id (Yuli Andriansyah) Tue, 22 Jul 2025 04:06:46 +0000 OJS 3.3.0.10 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss 60 https://journal.uii.ac.id/IJIIS/article/view/39221 <p>Religious moderation emphasizes tolerant, inclusive, and fair attitudes amidst religious, cultural, and traditional diversity. This study analyzes Ustadz Adi Hidayat's (UAH) YouTube lectures using Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), focusing on text, social cognition, and social context, to examine how he constructs and conveys religious moderation, aligning with Indonesia's diverse social landscape. The analysis reveals UAH discursively presents moderation as a practical solution for harmony, not just a theological concept. His discourse employs rhetorical strategies, like the stories of Fathu Makkah and the Treaty of Hudaibiyah, to underscore compassion, forgiveness, and harmony as core tenets. UAH's lectures implicitly guide audiences to understand moderation as an intrinsic part of Islamic teachings, promoting balance and rejecting extremism. Grounded in religious proofs (dalil) and historical narratives, his approach counters disinformation and polarization by encouraging a balanced religious understanding. This discourse significantly strengthens social harmony in Indonesia by cultivating tolerant, inclusive, and just attitudes among his vast digital audience. This research confirms UAH's discourse on religious moderation is highly relevant for both local cohesion and global peace.</p> Afifah Nabila Afdhalia, Faisol, Arqom Copyright (c) 2025 Afifah Nabila Afdhalia, Faisol, Arqom https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://journal.uii.ac.id/IJIIS/article/view/39221 Tue, 22 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://journal.uii.ac.id/IJIIS/article/view/40938 <p>This historiographical study investigates the role of Sufism in the development and continuity of Islam among Hui Muslims in China from the 7th to the 19th centuries. Using textual and historical analysis of Chinese chronicles, travel narratives, and Islamic educational materials, the study traces the institutional and doctrinal influence of Sufi thought across major Chinese dynasties. The study demonstrates that Sufism provided essential spiritual, intellectual, and organizational frameworks that enabled Hui Muslims to maintain their religious identity despite cultural assimilation, political pressure, and periods of severe persecution. During the Yuan dynasty, Sufi practices first gained institutional footing through the establishment of lodges (<em>zawiya</em>) in major cities. In the Ming period, Sufism's intellectual tradition became integrated into the innovative Jingtang Jiaoyu (scripture hall education) system, which preserved Islamic knowledge through traditional Chinese educational methods. The Qing dynasty witnessed the full institutionalization of Sufism through the emergence of formal Menhuan (Sufi orders)—including Khufiyya, Jahriyya, Qadiriyya, and Kubrawiyya—that established extensive networks of spiritual authority across China. Throughout these historical periods, Sufism served as a vital channel for the development of Islam among Hui Muslims in China, strengthening their faith and preserving their religious identity by providing crucial spiritual guidance and support.</p> Jianjun Mai Copyright (c) 2025 Jianjun Mai https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://journal.uii.ac.id/IJIIS/article/view/40938 Tue, 22 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000
