This article describes the use of Quranic verses in Indonesian religious films released from 2008 to 2020. This study investigates Indonesian religious movies based on the Quranic verses, the contexts, and the purposes for which they are used. The theories applied to religious films by Rachel Dwyer (2006) and relations of religion from films by Gregory J. Watkins (2008). The method used in this research is descriptive, in which the researcher interprets the religious film based on text through content analysis.
