Interfaith relations, or what we commonly know as religious moderation, have existed since the Srivijaya era. The Muaro Jambi Temple is a legacy of the Srivijaya kingdom. Character education in religious moderation is taught in the community and in the classroom. The Muaro Jambi temple complex was a center of moderation and religious education in Southeast Asia in the 15th century. As the largest temple complex in Southeast Asia, many of its buildings are still buried under the waters of the Batang Hari River, the longest river on the island of Sumatra. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach, meaning researchers find knowledge or theories about research over a certain period. This study aims to determine the value of Islamic religious teaching in the Muaro Jambi temple complex in Jambi. This study uses qualitative descriptive data analysis, meaning describing with the words used.
