- Abstract
Finding the Qur'an in the online world illustrates the new ways of Muslims in interacting with the Qur'an. Social media as part of the virtual one has a function as a provider of religious information, as well as representation of the religious practices of society including the relations between Muslims and the Qur'an in Indonesia. Observing the relationship of Indonesian Muslim with the Qur'an in public space in cyberspace can be seen in their interaction on social networking. Portrait of the relationship of the Muslims with the Qur'an in the most popular social media, facebook becomes the purpose of this article. Using qualitative method, this article focuses research on facebook account of some users, who were selected by purposive sampling. The data was analyzed in a deductive manner. This study shows that there are at least two forms of relationships namely aesthetic and hermeneutical receptions. Aesthetic reception involves reading and memorizing the Qur'an. While hermeneutical one emerges in an attempt to interpret the Qur'an. These two forms of virtual receptions are in line with the forms of Muslim interaction with the Qur'an in the real world. However, this form of relationship is simple and functional.
