A harmonious life in society, nation, and state is a shared goal regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, and culture. Achieving a harmonious and peaceful life requires a multifaceted process undertaken by every individual, group, structure, or culture, with every action directed toward the maqasid al-syari'ah (objectives of Islamic law) and a call to prevent violence, whether direct, structural, or cultural. The Qur'an itself discusses the concept of realizing islāh extensively. Among other things, islāh is realized by analyzing the types of violence that exist and then determining the type of peace study. Through Galtung's theory of violence and peace studies approach, it is ensured that a person has the potential to create peace without direct or indirect violence and vice versa. With this approach, the Maluku conflict in 1999 could be resolved by understanding the forms of violence and peace studies to create a harmonious and peaceful life (islāh) in society, nation, and state.
