The Indonesian Islamic Propagation Council (Indonesian: Dewan Da'wah Islamiyah Indonesia, abbreviated as DDII) is a Sunni Islamic organization in Indonesia which aimed at dawah (proselytizing).[1] The organization is considered one of the most prominent dawah organisations in modern Indonesia.[2] It is also noted for being the primary receiver (along with the LIPIA) of funding for Islamic activities in Indonesia from Saudi Arabia.[1]
