Until the end of the 20th century none of the countries -which are mostly dominated by Muslim population- exercised a fully democratic political system. No single Muslim country is considered to be a consolidated democratic state. As for Indonesia, democratization is still seen by some "fundamentalist" Muslim leaders as a non-necessary condition to protect and unify the Islamic community. The author argues that as long as there still exist disagreements among the Islamic leaders and thinkers on the relations between Islam and democracy, it will be difficult for democratic process to happen in the Muslim world. There are constrains for developing democratic political system in the Muslim world. This paper attempts to explore the debates on the problems of emulating democracy in the Muslim world
