KONFLIK AGAMA DAN PENYELESAIAANNYA: Kasus Ahmadiyah di Kabupaten Tasikmalaya, Jawa Barat

Abstract

Religious Conflict and Its Resolution: A Sutdy of Ahmadiyah in Tasikmalaya, Weste Java. This writing is aimed at analyzing factors that underly conflicts between mainstream Islam and Ahmadiya, its resolution, the role of SKB Tiga Menteri of 2008 and Pergub 2011 as a media of conflict resolution, as well as the responese to the two statutes. The findings of this study reveal that the religious conflicts stem from theological aspects that extend to political, socio-economic, govern- ment’s inambiguity in implementing the regulation, Ahmadiya’s exclusiveness in their religious duties and the influence of media. Conflict resolution in non-litigation is carried out through mediation that involving the goverment’s apparatus and the police, and litigation via judicial process. Ahmadiya argues that SKB and Pergub are incapable of playing any role in resolving religious conflict and thus reject and try to revoke them judicially. Mainstream Islam, however, argues to the opposite and insists in issuance of President Act or statute to disperse Ahmadiya organization
