Quraish Shihab's Reinterpretation of Ibn Kathir's Interpretation of Religious Moderation Verses in the Qur'an

Abstract

The emergence of insight into religious moderation from an Islamic perspective can provide space for studying and understanding how religious moderation should be in the Koran. Not only that, its important role in the emergence of various problems, especially in the religious field, makes it an attraction or study material that should be resolved. The Qur'an provides answers to all the problems faced, both religious and cultural insights. As social beings we need to understand and study, especially the issues that are always problematic, namely moderation and tolerance from the perspective of Islam and the Koran. In various aspects, the discussion of religious moderation continues to repeat itself and has no end in sight. Many figures define religious moderation so that the understanding of religious moderation varies according to their point of view. The presence of this research is to narrow down the discussion of religious moderation in the Koran so that a common understanding is created so that it is not divided. Not only that, with advances in technology, increasingly complex problems mean that this discussion must be in accordance with the current context, so that religious moderation can be understood well and does not cause commotion in society.
