<![CDATA[This article aims to examine the contribution of Islamic organizations in Indonesia in shaping and developing moderate Islamic thought during the New Order era. The focus of the study is directed at the role of Islamic organizations in maintaining a balance between Islamic values, national life, and socio-political stability amidst the government’s strong control during that period. This article employs a literature review method by examining various sources, including books, scientific journals, research articles, and historical documents related to the development of Islamic organizations and moderate Islamic thought during the New Order era. The findings indicate that (1) Islamic organizations played a crucial role in shaping moderate Islamic thought through education, da’wah, promoting tolerance, and accepting Pancasila as the state ideology, and (2) Islamic organizations also contributed to maintaining social stability and national life by mitigating the spread of extremist and confrontational religious ideologies through a moderate and dialogical approach to da’wah. The novelty of this article lies in its analysis, which positions Islamic organizations not only as religious forces but also as social actors capable of adapting to the political pressures of the New Order while maintaining the values of Islamic moderation in Indonesian society.]]>
