<![CDATA[Pluralism is the uniqueness of a particular society or nation. Therefore it is expected from every society to accept pluralism as a grace that will nurture a healthy attitude, tolerance, and mutual respect. Multicultural education aims to create a harmonious life in a multifaceted society. The values of pluralism and diversity are not necessarily well received if not accompanied by collective awareness of various parties and the lack of participation from the education community. Education should play a role in resolving conflicts in the community. Education must be able to provide intelligent offers, among others, by designing materials, methods, and curricula that can awaken the community to the importance of mutual tolerance, and respect for ethnic, religious, racial, ethnic, and cultural differences between multicultural Indonesians. It is proper for education to act as a medium of socio-cultural transformation and multiculturalism. Al Quran in the letter Al hujurat: 13 expressly explains the values of multicultural education that is: equality between men and women and respect differences among ethnic groups. In general, the above verse is understood as a description of the obligation to cooperate between men and women in various fields of life. Multicultural education needs to be limited only to the issues of human civilization and human life between religious people who are not in conflict with the “decree” of Allah or aqidah.
