In the context of Muslim society in Indonesia,Traditionalism or traditionalist Islam refers to a religious strand which puts emphasis on preserving traditionally established local rituals and scholarship. Traditionalist Muslims refer to themselves as ahlusunnah wal jamaah or aswaja. Traditionalism is often contrasted with modernism,which is inspired by modernity and rationalism. Traditionalism has been the most adhered Muslim religious orientation in the history of contemporary Muslim Indonesia. The extent of traditionalism widely overlaps with the influence of a socio-religious organization Nahdlatul Ulama,the biggest Muslim organization in Indonesia. Traditionalism is also a critical element within the Muslim intellectual movement known as Islam Nusantara.
In the context of Muslim society in Indonesia,Modernism or modernist Islam refers to a religious movement which puts emphasis on teachings purely derived from the Islamic religious scriptures,the Qur'an and Hadith.

Modernism is inspired by reformism during the late-19th to early 20th century based in the Middle East,such as the Islamic modernist,Salafiyya and Wahhabi movements. Throughout the history of contemporary Muslim Indonesia,these movements have inspired various religious organizations;from the mass organization Muhammadiyah (1912),political party Masyumi Party (1943),to missionary organization Indonesian Islamic Dawah Council (1967).
In July 2005,Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI),a semi-official Islamic clerical body of Indonesia,issued a fatwa,or an Islamic legal opinion,against religious pluralism,liberalism,and secularism. The issuance of fatwa garnered substantial controversy and scholarly attention. The fatwa addressed the reformist trend of Islam which had been popular among the broad Indonesian society over the past 25 years. Such trends advocated for a more substantive reading of the Quran and Hadith,instead of literalist approaches taken by the majority of ulamas. MUI considered such ideas as incompatible with Islamic teaching,releasing the fatwa to promote a more literal reading of the Islamic scriptures. The fatwa was heavily criticized by progressive Muslim intellectuals.
