Listen Listen to Lucy Williamson's report about a special Koran class (4 mins 1 sec)
Islam in Indonesia is renowned as being broadly tolerant and inclusive.
It is a brand of Islam where local cultural traditions seep into religious ritual, in a country where veiling is optional, and nightclubs exist alongside mosques.
However, one group has never found acceptance within mainstream Islamic communities: Indonesia's transgendered Muslims, known as Waria.
Now, a special Koran class has been set up in the Javanese city of Yogyakarta where they can pray freely.
The BBC's Indonesia correspondent, Lucy Williamson, has been to visit.
