Abstract

This study focuses on the attitude of the Council of Indonesian Ulama (MUI) in order to preserve the glory of the Qur'an in Indonesia. It is a study of four MUI’s fatwas relating to the Qur'an between 1975-2017 using the critical discourse analysis. This study states that there is political change influence towards opened up a space for MUI religious attitudes in establishing relationships with government and society. This can be seen, for instance, in the use of the sentence of the MUI’s fatwa. In the New Order era, MUI used a normative, suggestive and infirm language in its three fatwas. This is different from the fatwa in the period of “Reformation” which shows much more firmly with the phrase “obligatory to preserve the glory of the Qur'an” and placed on the part of the dictum or the content of its fatwa. It is a change in the use of language of fatwa decisions that indicate the turn of the MUI fatwa along with changes in its increasing position in society and tend to keep the distance from the government.
