Handbook of Contemporary Islam and Muslim Lives

Abstract

Indonesia straddles the equator in Southeast Asia. It is the world’s fourth most populous country and has the largest Muslim population. It is also one of the few Muslim majority consolidated democracies. In Indonesia, there is a basic distinction between traditionalist, reformist, neo-traditionalist, and Salafi-Wahhabi understandings of Islam. A unique feature of Indonesian Islam is the importance of mass organizations with tens of millions of followers. There are also Islamic political parties and women’s organizations.
