Abstract

Religious service for minorities is the subject that has been heavily discussed within the Shariah framework. The Constitution guarantees freedom of religion and worship without exception, including religious services for minorities such as the establishment of place of worship, recording of marriages and births, funerals, and identity cards issuance. Neglecting minority rights in the context of religious services is a serious problem found in several provinces in Indonesia. The lack of attention to minority communities can be seen as a form of ignoring citizenship rights. This can also be seen as an act of neglecting the constitutional mandate that guarantees every citizen to get an equal treatment by the government. To improve religious services for religious minorities, there is a need for a new paradigm approach and strategy in order to cut down on constraints and barriers for giving the services needed. This study aims to better uncover the problems of religious services for religious minorities along with the social context behind it, propose new strategies to improve the existing policies, and developed programs that can be implemented as a solution for the improvement.
