Multicultural education is defined as the process of developing all human potentials that respect plurality and heterogeneity as a consequence of cultural, ethnic, ethnic and religious diversity. The concept of multiculturalism emphasizes the importance of seeing the world from different cultural frames of reference, language, gender, social status, and recognizing and appreciating the richness of cultural diversity within the country and in the global community. The results of the discussion show that the multiculturalist Islamic education provided by the teacher will make students know each other's culture and increase understanding that Indonesia has various kinds of diversity values. These values must be maintained properly by increasing tolerance, mutual respect and acceptance of differences.
