Abstract

ndonesia's diversity, encompassing various ethnicities, religions, and beliefs, presents unique challenges in social life, one of which is the rise of religious intolerance. In this context, madrasahs, as Islamic-based educational institutions, play a crucial role in shaping a moderate and tolerant younger generation. However, students' understanding of interfaith values in madrasahs remains limited, which could lead to exclusive attitudes. This study aims to explore the importance of understanding interfaith values in madrasahs and to develop strategies for strengthening this understanding. Through a qualitative approach and descriptive method, the study finds that introducing universal values from various religions can strengthen interfaith relations and equip students with a more tangible sense of tolerance. Multiple strategies, such as project-based learning innovation, collaboration with external parties, and integrating interfaith values into the Rahmatan Lil Alamin Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5RA), can be implemented to shape a generation ready to live in a plural society. It is hoped that this approach can strengthen social cohesion in Indonesia and create a peaceful and harmonious society.
