This study aims to describe the concept of religious moderation, particularly in the context of Islam. The research method used is literature study, and it concludes that many people, especially in Indonesia, still fail to understand the concept of religious moderation. Religious moderation can be demonstrated through attitudes such as Tawasuth (middle way), Tawazun (balance), Iktilad (straight), Tasamuh (tolerance), Musawah (egalitarian), Syura (deliberation), Ishlah (reform), Aulaawiyah (prioritizing priorities), and Tathawur wa ibtikar (dynamic and innovative). The study explores the meaning of religious moderation, which is derived from the Latin word *moderatio* meaning balance. In Indonesian, *moderasi* means reducing violence or extremism. In Arabic, *wasath* or *wasathiyyah* means the middle or the middle path. The concept of *wasath* has two meanings according to Ibnu Assyur: "something in the middle" or "having two equal ends." It also refers to an Islamic belief that is reasonable and moderate, avoiding extremism in any field. The study discusses the values of religious moderation, including: 1. **Tawasuth (Middle Way)**: A way of thinking and living that does not neglect religious teachings. 2. **Tawazun (Balance)**: Harmony between firm foundations for distinguishing differences and deviating from the right path, and applying religious teachings in all aspects of life. 3. **Iktilad (Straight)**: Straightforward and firm living in religion, emphasizing the importance of living life with integrity and fairness. 4. **Tasamuh (Tolerance)**: Tolerance, forgiveness, and mutual respect among people of different faiths. 5. **Musawah (Egalitarian)**: Non-discrimination against people of different origins, traditions, or beliefs, emphasizing justice, equality, and fairness. 6. **Syura (Deliberation)**: Consultation in decision-making, focusing on Islamic principles. 7. **Ishlah (Reform)**: Reforming to improve conditions while maintaining public interest and introducing relevant ideas. 8. **Aulaawiyah (Prioritizing Priorities)**: Prioritizing values that bring benefit and welfare. 9. **Tathawur wa Ibtikar (Dynamic and Innovative)**: Dynamic, creative, and innovative in practicing religious teachings. 10. **Tahadhdhur (Etiquette)**: Practicing religion with full awareness of cultural values. The study also examines the challenges and misunderstandings surrounding religious moderation, particularly in Indonesia. It highlights the importance of understanding and applying these values to promote social harmony and respect for religious diversity. The research concludes that religious moderation is crucial for maintaining social order and strengthening multicultural societies.This study aims to describe the concept of religious moderation, particularly in the context of Islam.
