Abstract

Multiculturalism is a phenomenon that emerged in the 1970s, an ideology used in managing a pluralistic society. In practice, this ideology has succeeded in creating peace and prosperity in the country where this ideology was originally created. However, in recent decades, multiculturalism is considered a failure in managing multicultural societies in several countries such as in Europe. Violence, terrorism, racism still occur in these communities. Where the ideology of multiculturalism should make people respect each other, respect one another, and uphold the values of brotherhood. So based on these problems, this article will explain the challenges faced by multiculturalism and how the Qur‘an describes multiculturalism and the basic values of multiculturalism.
