Abstract: The relationship between Islam and democracy, on the one hand, is considered compatible, while others call it as a paradoxical relationship. Islam as a religion has a particular standard in placing social diversity. At least, the existence of Islam as a religion positions itself "different" from other religions and thus demands special treatment in state policy, as the democracy system places all religions equally. The proposed procedural mechanism of democracy tends to create dominance that threatens the space of equality. This article agrees on the compatibility of Islam and democracy but questioning to what extent is the tolerance level when it comes to the implementation of equality in a democracy. This discussion is important because if the limits of religious involvement in the public sphere are not clearly defined, there is a potential for the majority to dominate the minority. There are rules and regulation which are dominated by the interests of the Islamic teaching which ga ins rejection on its practical level. Even though the deliberation process has been taken place but the law is kept being run due to satisfying the public interest. (More)
