Abstract

Religious moderation has emerged as a central concept shaping the trajectory of religious freedom, primarily through the lenses of social tolerance and religious tolerance. A failure to distinguish between these two forms of tolerance carefully risks rendering the problem of religious truth both relative and biased. Consequently, efforts to promote religious moderation may inadvertently give rise to a new form of religious pluralism. This study employs a research-based literature review and critical analysis, drawing on Robert Audi’s ontological commitment as its primary philosophical framework. The methodology integrates three systematic elements: first, interpretation is used to identify and articulate the core problems inherent in religious moderation; second, induction is employed to derive general conclusions about the concept of religious moderation; and third, heuristics are applied to explore the concept ontologically, epistemologically, and axiologically. The findings reveal that a nuanced distinction between social tolerance and religious tolerance is essential to prevent the dilution of religious truth claims while still fostering a pluralistic public sphere. Furthermore, the study identifies that without a strong ontological foundation as articulated by Audi religious moderation risks either descending into relativism (if tolerance is overemphasized) or lapsing into exclusivism (if truth claims are overemphasized). Thus, the findings demonstrate that a balanced, ontology-based approach can provide a more fundamental and coherent understanding of the actualization of religious freedom in Indonesia.

Abstract

Discussions about usury often spark long debates, as well as raise ambivalence. There has been a lot of literature highlighting the dynamics of this issue with various emphases. With the growing discourse on the establishment of Islamic economics in Indonesia, the Hijrah from Ribā movement originating from the grassroots is interesting to observe. However, there is still little literature that explores their personal world of experiences. This study seeks to understand how Islamic economic activists view usury. Three informants from the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY) Indonesia were selected for this study to be interviewed in a semi-structured manner. Interview transcripts were reviewed qualitatively using the IPA (Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis) approach. Data analysis revealed five superordinate themes: (1) business as usual, (2) a turning point, (3) learning process and role of the MUI fatwa, (4) post-hijrah spiritual experience, and (5) creative action: beyond debate. The findings of this study demonstrate the complexity of the psycho-social economic dimension, which has been neglected and is often ignored in the realm of modern positivism culture, which assumes economic reality to be autonomous and deterministic. Some methodological notes were also put forward to provide another facet in the development of Islamic economics research.
