The Values of Multicultural Islamic Religious Education in Hadith Weaving Diversity Narrated by At Tirmidhi
Abstract
It is impossible to ignore diversity or multiculturalism, particularly in the classroom from elementary school through higher education. Therefore, one must work to become a tolerant and pluralistic person in order to accept these differences. Naturally, this is inextricably linked to Islamic education's core principles, which include mercy for all peoples. Realizing unity and togetherness is crucial in the context of multicultural Islamic education in order to prevent separation or slander. As a result, Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, serves as the main role model. The purpose of this study is to closely explore the multicultural dimensions, methodologies, and approaches found in the hadith "Weaving Diversity" as well as to analyze the values of multicultural Islamic education in the hadith as told by at-Tirmidhi. The methodology employed in this study is classified as descriptive qualitative library research. The multicultural values of Islamic education reflected are the Sharia, which in this case is represented by the Prophet's saying, commanding his followers to always be steadfast or consistent in being in one line with the majority of the community, even though it is very multicultural. Sharia strives to educate that the potential for deviation among those who try to distance themselves from the majority of the community is very high. Therefore, Sharia commands to always hold firmly to al-jamaah or the majority group, within which there are many scholars or intellectuals who are always ready to remind each other if there is any deviation. Remembering the Prophet's saying in another hadith that this community will never agree on an injustice or deviation. The reflected method of multicultural education is decision-making and social action. While its approach is an aesthetic approach. Then, its multicultural dimension is the reduction of prejudice.
