LITERASI MULTIKULTURAL DI KALANGAN ASN; KUNCI MENGHADAPI TANTANGAN KEBERAGAMAN PERSPEKTIF AL-QUR’AN DAN HADIS

Abstract

Cultural diversity is a social reality faced by civil servants (Aparatur Sipil Negara, ASN) in Indonesia. Multicultural literacy serves as a strategic key in managing differences and strengthening social harmony within a pluralistic work environment. This article examines the role of multicultural literacy among ASN, highlighting its relevance to the values of diversity as reflected in the Qur'an and Hadith. Using a qualitative approach, this study analyzes the concept of multicultural literacy, its implementation in ASN policies and practices, and its connection to Islamic teachings that promote tolerance, justice, and brotherhood. The findings reveal that strengthening multicultural literacy based on the values of the Qur'an and Hadith can serve as an effective strategy to address diversity challenges, enhance ASN competencies, and support the creation of inclusive and equitable public services. Thus, multicultural literacy is not only socially relevant but also aligns with Islamic principles that underpin the ethical foundations of ASN in Indonesia.
