Abstract

This study aims to explore the dual role of religion in contemporary society—as both a source of tolerance and a driver of intolerance—by critically analyzing the socio-political, cultural, and global contexts that shape religious discourse. The research responds to the urgency of understanding religion beyond theological essentialism, emphasizing the need for a sociological approach to interpret the contradictory manifestations of religion in plural societies. Employing a qualitative design through critical literature review, the study analyzes academic texts and discourse on religion using thematic content analysis. The data sources include influential works by Diana Eck, John Hick, Mark Juergensmeyer, Karen Armstrong, Jeremy Menchik, Robert Hefner, and others. The findings reveal three significant patterns: religion as a moral force fostering interfaith dialogue; religion as an ideological tool legitimizing social exclusion; and the ambivalent image of religion shaped by state politics, popular media, and transnational religious networks. The study demonstrates that religion is never neutral—it is continuously constructed and contested within power relations, identity politics, and symbolic representation. These insights underscore the functional and dysfunctional roles of religion in shaping social cohesion and polarization. The implications of this research highlight the urgency of promoting critical religious literacy, interfaith education, and inclusive public policies that prevent the instrumentalization of religion for sectarian or authoritarian interests. The originality of this study lies in its multidimensional mapping of the social construction of religion, shifting the analytical lens from sacred texts to contextual forces. By integrating classic sociological theories with the Indonesian context, this research offers a comprehensive and contextually grounded contribution to the sociology of religion.

Abstract

AbstrakPluralitas agama memiliki sebuah potensi konflik yang bisa mengaktual, sehingga pada kondisi tersebut, dibutuhkan sebuah pola agar konflik tersebut setidaknya dapat dicegah atau diminimalisir. John Hick adalah seorang pemikir agama yang menawarkan jalan pada kondisi tersebut dengan konsepnya mengenai pluralisme agama. Berangkat dari situlah penelitian ini ditulis. Metode yang digunakan adalah studi pustaka, yang mana sumber data akan diambil dari buku dan jurnal yang relevan dengan tema ini. Adapun hasil penelitian ini adalah: John Hick menawarkan revolusi Kopernikan dalam agama, yakni mengalihkan keterpustan-diri kepada keterpusatan-Realitas dalam beragama. Lalu Hick mengadopsi distingsi noumena (Yang-Riil) dan fenomena (Yang-Riil sebagaimana dipersepsi) ala Kant yang ditariknya pada ranah agama untuk membangun basis konsepsi pluralisme. Dari pluralisme inilah Hick menegaskan, bahwa pengalaman manusia ketika berkoneksi dengan Yang-Riil bersifat plural, dan karenanya monopoli klaim agama menjadi tidak relevan; dan dari situlah pluralisme sebagai basis kerukunan beragama menjadi mungkin.Kata Kunci:Pluralisme, Revolusi Kopernikan, KeselamatanAbstractReligious plurality has a potential for conflict that can be actualized, so that under these conditions, a pattern is needed so that the conflict can at least be prevented or minimized. John Hick is a religious thinker who offers a way to this condition with his concept of religious pluralism. From there this research was written. The method used is literature study, in which data sources will be taken from books and journals relevant to this theme. The results of this study are: John Hick offers a Copernican revolution in religion, namely shifting self-liberty to Reality-centeredness in religion. Then Hick adopted the Kantian distinction of noumena (Real-Real) and phenomena (The Real as perceived) which he drew on the realm of religion to build a basis for the conception of pluralism. It is from this pluralism that Hick emphasizes that human experience when connecting with the Real is plural, and therefore the monopoly of religious claims is irrelevant; and from there pluralism as a basis for religious harmony becomes possible.Keywords:Copernican Revolution, Pluralism, Salvation

Abstract

This study aims to analyze how exclusive and literalist interpretations of Qur’anic verses on warfare, such as QS. At-Taubah:5and QS. Al-Anfāl:12, have become one of the roots of religious radicalism and to offer a framework for reconstructing interpretation that is more ethical and contextual. The research employs a qualitative-critical approach through library research, using Fazlur Rahman’s double-movement hermeneutics, Michel Foucault’s analysis of power relations, and the framework of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ahas analytical tools. Data were collected from classical tafsirs (al-Ṭabarī, al-Qurṭubī), modern tafsirs (Tafsir al-Azhar, Tafsir al-Mishbāh), and contemporary academic literature. The findings reveal that literalist exegesis, when detached from its historical context and ethical purposes, legitimizes violence and fuels exclusivism, while contextual exegesis offers an inclusive framework that fosters dialogue, reconciliation, and social justice. This study also shows that exegesis is not ideologically neutral but often functions as an arena of power contestation, where interpretation can either reinforce domination or become a discourse of liberation against fundamentalism. The implications highlight the urgent need to integrate contextual hermeneutics into religious education curricula, strengthen exegetical literacy in public discourse, and promote interreligious dialogue as a means to counter radicalism. The originality of this research lies in its interdisciplinary integration of hermeneutics, power analysis, and socio-political context, which provides a comprehensive framework for reinterpreting Qur’anic war verses in a way that is faithful to the text yet responsive to contemporary plural realities.

Abstract

This article critically examines the concept of pluralism within the study of religion, addressing both its theoretical foundations and practical applications across various countries. Religious pluralism is understood as the recognition of religious diversity as a social and theological reality that must be approached with openness, dialogue, and mutual respect. Employing a qualitative approach through literature review, this study analyzes key works by Paul F. Knitter, Wilfred Cantwell Smith, and Alwi Shihab, while also presenting case studies from Indonesia, India, the United States, and Western Europe. The findings reveal that pluralism is not merely a moral ideal but also a necessary framework for promoting peaceful coexistence amid difference. Despite facing challenges such as fundamentalism, discrimination, and identity politics, pluralism remains relevant as a foundation for inclusive and transformative religious studies. The article recommends strengthening interfaith education, supporting diversity-oriented policies, and encouraging religious leaders to foster interreligious dialogue. Contribution:  The study offers actionable recommendations aimed at enhancing interfaith education, supporting policies that encourage diversity, and promoting interreligious dialogue, thereby enriching both academic discourse and practical efforts toward inclusive and transformative religious engagement.
