<![CDATA[The Qur’an addresses the tension between firm religious commitment and social coexistence in plural societies. This study responds to this gap by analyzing the dialectics of religious moderation in the Qur’an through verses on plurality, justice, dialogue, and the limits of tolerance. This study uses a qualitative library-based design with thematic Qur’anic exegesis (tafsīr mawdūʿī), qualitative content analysis, and contextual hermeneutics. The data consist of the Qur’an, classical and contemporary commentaries, and peer-reviewed academic publications from the last five years. The findings reveal four main points. First, the Qur’an frames plurality as sunnatullāh that requires ethical management. Second, wasaṭiyyah serves as the core principle of moderation by balancing theological commitment and social openness. Third, Qur’anic dialogue ethics guide interfaith relations through justice, civility, and mutual respect. Fourth, tolerance has normative limits that protect religious identity without promoting exclusivism. This article offers the Dialectical Qur’anic Moderation Model as a conceptual framework that connects revelation, exegetical tradition, and plural social practice. The study contributes to contemporary Ushuluddin scholarship and provides normative guidance for religious education, interfaith dialogue, and public policy in multicultural societies.]]>
