MEMBUMIKAN PLURALISME PERSPEKTIF ISLAM INDONESIA: FAKTA, TANTANGAN DAN GAGASAN
Abstract: Indonesia is a
pluralistic nation. Both in terms of cultural entities, language, tribe, ethnic
and religious differences. Therefore, the pluralism can not be understood
simply by sayingthat our society is pluralistic, diverse, or made up of
different tribes and religions, which is actually only describe the impression
of fragmentation, not pluralism. Pluralism should also not be understood merely
"negative goodness", which is seen usefulness toget rid of
fanaticism. Instead, pluralism should be understood as a true affinity
diversityin bundles politeness. Even, pluralism is a must for the salvation of
mankind, including through mechanisms supervision and balances that result. In
the Islamic perspective it ismentioned that God created the mechanism of checks
and balances among humans inorder to maintain the integrity of the earth, and
is one manifestation of God's abundant mercy to mankind.
