“…As described in the previous section, the ultimate goal of puritanical Islamic organisations and movements is to propagandise and establish a version of Islam that is freed from the remnants of local cultures and traditions. This kind of exclusionary mission makes puritan Islamic organisations and movements intolerant not only of different versions of Islam but also of other religions and faiths (Shukri, 2008). Taken together, these arguments imply that Islamic puritanism may prompt Muslims to express high levels of religious intolerant intentions.…”

This article addresses the question of why members of a majority group, despite their more powerful status, may protest against low-power minority groups. The present study addressed this question in the context of immanent intergroup relations between Muslims, as the majority group, and non-Muslims, as the minority group, in Indonesia. It is argued that at the core of such collective protests is a threat by association, a perception of the majority group members that the minority groups are in league with the West which threatens the existence of Muslims worldwide. Based on data collected using a survey questionnaire from Indonesian Muslims ( N = 418) this study tested a hypothesised model using threat by association posed by the minority groups, Islamic puritanism and beliefs relating to western conspiracy to predict collective protests and intolerant intentions against non-Muslim minorities in Indonesia by using MPlus version 7.0. The hypothesised model found empirical support. The relationship between threat by association and Islamic puritanism with collective protests was mediated by Western conspiracy beliefs. It was also found that support for collective protests got translated into majority group members’ religious intolerant intentions against the people belonging to the non-Muslim minority groups. The article discusses the theoretical implications and research limitations of these empirical findings.

Every religion is normally perceived from their own religion to tend toward exclusiveness by claiming that their religion is the only true religion, offering the true revelation and the true way of salvation. This exclusiveness started with desire to know the religious status or truth position among other religions. The question on which religion is the ideal religion and ultimately the truest one has always been raised and debated among people of religions. This polemic can be a seed of many conflicts and disagreements between religions in many parts of the world, including Malaysia as a multi-religious country. This is a preliminary study which attempts to explore issues and challenges pertaining to religious tolerance as practiced in Malaysia. This research is a qualitative research which data are gathered from various sources including books, journals, magazines, newspapers, articles and internet sources related to the topic as well as in depth interview with qualified persons. The data will then be analysed using document analysis method. The result shows that religious tolerance in this country is seen working under various and distinctive understanding. The main challenges to practising religious tolerance in Malaysia emerged from none guidance module to practising religious tolerance especially which stated the limitation and the rule in religious tolerance applicable in Malaysia context and lack of understanding of religious tolerance needed within adherents of religion which cause prejudices against the adherents of religions.

Bu çalışmada hoşgörü ve tolerans kavramlarının öteki ve ötekileştirme kavramları açısından bir analizi yapılmıştır. Çalışmada öncelikle ötekinin ve ötekileştirmenin tanımları verilmiş, ötekinin tanımına pozitif ve negatif olarak iki farklı felsefik bakış açısı tanıtılmış, sonra tolerans ile hoşgörü tanımları verilmiştir. Çalışmada tolerans ve hoşgörü arasında anlam farklılığını ortaya koyan tolerans eşiği ismini alan bir kavramın önemli bir etkisinin bulunduğu görülmüş, hoşgörünün doğunun toleransın ise batının tercih ettiği iki kardeş kavram olduğu, bu ayrımın ise doğu ve batıyı çatıştıran oryantalizim düşüncesinin tohumlarından doğduğunu, oryantalizmin kökünün ise ötekileştirmeden geldiğini anlatmaktayız.
