Abstract

The sharp polarization caused by the general election in Indonesia has created a new phenomenon of intolerance which breaks unity and oneness. This polarization is also increasingly sharpened by the existence of elements that take advantage of this polarization for the interests of groups and classes, thus creating a climate of identity politics that is extreme left or right. Efforts to reduce this polarization need to be continuously developed. The development of religious moderation is an important step in addressing identity politics. Each party exists with various identities, both ethnicity, race and religion. Religious moderation plays a role in creating a conducive situation for each religion to grow and develop as one of the basic rights guaranteed by law. The author criticizes as well as provides suggestions from the results of a qualitative analysis of the literature on efforts to develop religious moderation. With the development of religious moderation, it is hoped that the polarization caused by identity politics will not become too extreme and disrupt the life of the nation and state.

Abstract

Islamophobia has recently become more prevalent, both in the West and in Muslim nations. Social media contributes to the dissemination of anti-Islamic material. Religious moderation needs to find a way to moderate arising issues in society to avoid extremism, especially Islamophobia. This essay will look at ways to rejuvenate social media in an effort to combat Islamophobia. Using a qualitative methodology and analytical descriptive approaches, the core reasons for Islamophobia's growth and the ability of social media to combat it are investigated. According to the study's findings, Islamophobia is mostly caused by a misunderstanding of Islam and Muslim culture. Social media, when utilized wisely, has the ability to serve as a tool for public education about Islam, recovering its image as a religion of peace and salvation. The strategies that can be implemented include being moderate, critical, and responsive to Islamophobic content and educating about the wise use of social media. Active participation from all elements of society is needed to revitalize the role of social media in countering the negative impacts of Islamophobia and creating a better understanding in the middle of the community.
