I would like to use this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation and gratitude to people who have contributed to the accomplishment of this work. First of all, I would like to express my highest gratitude to my Doktorvater and supervisor, Prof. Dr. Eckehard Schulz for helping, supporting, and encouraging me in my goal to finish my study. I would like to thank the Directorate of Islamic Higher Education, Ministry of Religious Affairs for granting me the scholarship so I could study in Universität Leipzig.

This work is my gift for them. | 3 Abbreviations Dikti : Pendidikan Tinggi (Higher Degree Education) FL : Foreign Language IAIN : Institut Agama Islam Negeri (State Institute for Islamic Studies) MA :
