Abstract

This study examines the interpretation of Qur’anic verses on tolerance according to the Thematic Tafsir of the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia (Kemenag RI). The background of this research lies in the urgent need for a proper understanding of tolerance in Indonesia's pluralistic society and the importance of having an official government-endorsed tafsir as a reference. The research problems include how Kemenag RI interprets verses on tolerance, the principles of tolerance that can be formulated from these interpretations, and the relevance of such interpretations in today’s Indonesian context. This study employs a qualitative method with a library research approach. Primary data is sourced from the Thematic Tafsir published by Kemenag RI, especially the volume(s) relevant to the themes of tolerance and harmony. Data analysis is conducted through a descriptive-analytical approach to understand the interpretations and formulate the principles of tolerance. The findings show that the Thematic Tafsir of Kemenag RI interprets tolerance as a fundamental Islamic value that promotes peaceful coexistence, recognition of differences, and prohibition of religious coercion highly relevant for maintaining harmony in Indonesia. The novelty of this research lies in its specific focus on Kemenag RI’s Thematic Tafsir as the main source, the systematic formulation of tolerance principles derived from it, and the analysis of their relevance in the context of Indonesia’s diversity. Its relevance to the Indonesian context is evident in how the Thematic Tafsir aligns closely with the values of Pancasila, particularly the first and third principles on Divinity and Unity. This interpretation serves as an important official government reference for fostering peaceful interreligious life in Indonesia.

A Mufassir, or interpreter of the Koran, must adhere to the principle of prudence and avoid interpreting the text based on personal desires. Nevertheless, in conformity with the Divine Being who has disclosed the Qur'an. The interpreter's personality is a crucial factor in evaluating the quality of the interpretation output. As time advances, the field of interpretation should likewise evolve. Some contemporary scholars are hesitant to reinterpret the Qur'an due to the stringent standards set forth by classical scholars. This study employs qualitative research methodology, namely library research. The employed data collection strategy is a literature review method that utilizes diverse primary and secondary data sources. The research findings indicate that there are specific circumstances and criteria that must be met by an individual in order to be considered a mufassir, or an interpreter of the Al-Qur'an. The prerequisites, encompassing both physical and psychological aspects, along with scholastic criteria, aim to reinforce the outcomes of the interpretation that are unanimously agreed upon by the ulama and may be universally recognized by all segments of society.
