Abstract

In modern life, humans often experience tension between material needs and inner peace, resulting in emotional imbalance that manifests in extreme religious behavior and a loss of meaning in life. This article aims to examine the role of Sufism as a bridge between emotional balance and a moderate religious attitude. This study employs a qualitative approach based on library research, integrating Sufi and psychological thought with the concept of religious moderation within the context of Islamic studies. Core Sufi values such as tazkiyat al-nafs (self-purification), mahabbah (divine love), sabr (patience), and tasamuh (tolerance) are analyzed in relation to the formation of inner balance and compassionate religious behavior. The findings reveal that inner harmony cultivated through Sufi teachings serves as the foundation for authentic and just religious moderation. Therefore, Sufism functions as a form of spiritual therapy that connects personal tranquility with social harmony. The integration of emotional balance and moderate religiosity through Sufi spirituality constitutes an essential basis for strengthening a peaceful, inclusive, and humanistic religious life.
