Abstract

Corruption in procurement of the Qur’an at the Indonesian Ministry of Religious Affairs (MoRA) became a phenomenal case in 2012. This case is a huge challenge for MoRA to obtain public trust as it involved the Holy Qur’an, a book considered by Muslims as sacred. This study uses interviews, document and recapitulation data from tashih online application, and observation. Here, accountability and transparency were the important points to rectifying public services, so as to create a zone of integrity that was free from corruption, collusion, and nepotism. MoRA established Lajnah Pentashihan Mushaf al-Qur’an (LPMQ/the Committee of Rectifying of the Qur’an) to check the validity of the master draft of the Qur'an; thereby avoiding this book from any typographical error. In 2018, LPMQ launched an online rectification (tashih online) to give a better service to society throughout Indonesia and to regain their trust.
