Hospitality As an Ethic of Religious Moderation: A Philosophical, Theological, and Cultural Analysis in The Context of Indonesian Plurality

Muhammad Fikri Adrian, Yusdani Yusdani

Abstract

Abstract

This article offers a new conceptual framework for religious moderation in Indonesia by making hospitality a transformative philosophical, theological and cultural foundation. This research aims to develop a religious moderation paradigm that is more relational, contextual, and based on an ethic of openness to alterity, as an alternative to the normative-top-down approach that tends to emphasize formal balance between groups. Using a qualitative-descriptive method, this research seeks to critically examine the thoughts of figures such as Levinas, Derrida, Ricoeur, Kristeva, and Habermas, as well as explore the values of hospitality in Indonesian local wisdom. The theological dimension also enriches the analysis, by examining the concepts of ikram al-jār, ikram al-ḍayf, as well as the value of agape and the spirit of Gospel hospitality in the Christian tradition. The results show that in the context of Indonesia's plural and dynamic diversity, the paradigm of hospitality is able to encourage a shift from passive tolerance to active engagement, from normative universalism to relational contextualism, and from identity exclusivism to ethical openness. Thus, hospitality not only expands the horizon of religious moderation, but also transforms it into an inclusive, dialogical and civilized practice of living together.

Abstrak
Artikel ini menawarkan kerangka konseptual baru untuk moderasi beragama di Indonesia dengan menjadikan keramahtamahan sebagai landasan filosofis, teologis, dan kultural yang transformatif. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan paradigma moderasi beragama yang lebih relasional, kontekstual, dan berlandaskan pada etika keterbukaan terhadap liyan, sebagai alternatif dari pendekatan normatif-top-down yang cenderung menekankan keseimbangan formal antar kelompok. Dengan menggunakan metode kualitatif-deskriptif, penelitian ini berupaya mengkaji secara kritis pemikiran tokoh-tokoh seperti Levinas, Derrida, Ricoeur, Kristeva, dan Habermas, serta menggali nilai-nilai keramahtamahan dalam kearifan lokal Indonesia. Dimensi teologis juga memperkaya analisis ini, dengan mengkaji konsep-konsep ikram al-jār, ikram al-ḍayf, serta nilai agape dan semangat keramahtamahan Injili dalam tradisi Kristen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam konteks keberagaman Indonesia yang plural dan dinamis, paradigma keramahtamahan mampu mendorong pergeseran dari toleransi pasif menuju keterlibatan aktif, dari universalisme normatif menuju kontekstualisme relasional, serta dari eksklusivisme identitas menuju keterbukaan etis. Dengan demikian, keramahtamahan tidak hanya memperluas cakrawala moderasi beragama, tetapi juga mentransformasikannya menjadi praktik hidup bersama yang inklusif, dialogis, dan beradab.
