EXPLORING RELIGIOUS MODERATION: A Washatiyyah Perspective in Tafsir Tahlili Al-Qur'an
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the construction of Washatiyyah (moderation) in a religious context based on the perspective of the Quran, with a focus on of the study of Tahlili interpretations of the Qur'an. The method of qualitative analysis is used with a descriptive approach, involving the search of the literature, the collection of data from the relevant Tahlili interpretations, as well as the analysis and interpretation from the verses of the Koran related to religious moderation. The study is aimed at providing a deeper understanding of the constructions of religious Washatiyya in a Koran perspective, with practical implications in guiding Muslims in practicing religious moderation and building inclusive, tolerant, and harmonious societies. The study also aims to reveal the understanding and interpretation of scholarship related to religious moderation, such as the principles, values, and examples of the verses of the Qur'an that describe moderate attitudes in religion. Using the Qur'anic interpretation as a primary source, the study seeks to provide practical guidance for Muslims in applying religious moderation in everyday life. The findings of this research are expected to make an important contribution to developing thought and understanding of religious moderation from the perspective of the Qur'an, as well as promoting social peace and interreligious congregation. In the context of building inclusive and harmonious societies, a deeper understanding of religious Washatiyyah construction will be a strong foundation for overcoming conflict and enhancing tolerance in religious life.
