Abstract

Religious moderation and tolerance are two key concepts in building a harmonious and inclusive society. Moderation refers to a balanced attitude in understanding and implementing religious teachings, while religious tolerance emphasizes the importance of respecting diversity. This study aims to investigate the relationship between moderation and religious tolerance and its impact on social stability and societal sustainability. The research methods used include surveys, interviews, and qualitative data analysis. The research results show that individuals who hold moderate attitudes are more tolerant of other people's religious beliefs and practices. Additionally, societies that encourage religious moderation tend to experience lower levels of conflict and are better able to build harmonious relationships. These findings highlight the importance of promoting religious moderation and tolerance in building stable and inclusive societies. Policy implications include moderation-oriented religious education, open interfaith dialogue, as well as the formation of policies that respect religious freedom and minimize religion-based discrimination. Thus, strengthening religious moderation and tolerance is the key to the success of sustainable social development.
