DAKWAH DALAM MASYARAKAT MULTIKULTURAL
Abstract
Indonesia is a country which has so many ethnicities, tribes, cultures, languages, and religions. Such diversity is prone to conflict and discord and therefore, there must be a systematic, programmed, integrated, and sustainable effort to maintain the integrity of the nation and as a multicultural country. A step to be taken to realize it is by planting a multicultural understanding to the society. Planting a multicultural understanding is not intended to eliminate differences but to eliminate bias, develop dialogs and get to know the differences among them, so that mutual respect and appreciation can be achieved. One form of planting a multicultural understanding can be a dakwah activity which applies a cultural approach that is grounded in universal values of humanity.
