This study uses a virtual ethnographic approach to examine how four interfaith communities (JAKATARUB Bandung, PELITA Padang, Eco Bhinneka Kalbar, and Peace Generation Makassar) use Instagram to promote peace and interreligious dialogue. This study analyzes digital content activism strategies, communication patterns, and community engagement approaches through systematic digital analysis observations and Instagram archives. The findings indicate that these communities have developed innovative ways of utilizing Instagram features to create meaningful interfaith dialogue, combining local wisdom with universal peace values. They use a variety of content formats, including educational infographics, personal storytelling, and interactive discussions to engage young viewers. Although these communities face challenges such as limited algorithms and resources, their adaptability shows the potential of digital platforms in fostering interfaith dialogue and peacebuilding. This research makes three important contributions: first, developing a comprehensive analytical framework for studying peace activism in the digital era; second, uncovering effective strategies for integrating local wisdom with digital activism; and third, offering a practical model for developing sustainable social media-based peace programs.</p> Dwi Wahyuni, Intan Karlina Copyright (c) 2024 Dwi Wahyuni, Intan Karlina http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://ejournal.uinbukittinggi.ac.id/index.php/fuaduna/article/view/8740 Tue, 31 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000 Promoting Religious Moderation through Community Engagement: Insights from Religious Counselors in Cinta Damai Village https://ejournal.uinbukittinggi.ac.id/index.php/fuaduna/article/view/8719 <p>This study seeks to determine the role of religious counselors in strengthening religious moderation in Cinta Damai Village, Deli Serdang North Sumatra. As part of the <em>da'wah</em> (preaching) movement, religious counselors are in charge of providing religious understanding and resolving community issues. This study uses a qualitative method with a field study approach and descriptive design. This approach allows in-depth data mining related to the views, experiences, and understanding of the community toward the role of religious counselors. Field studies were conducted to obtain contextual and relevant data on the conditions of Cinta Damai Village. The findings reveal that religious counselors have a crucial role in strengthening religious moderation through three main functions: informative, consultative and advocative. Messages about tolerance, interfaith dialog, and legal awareness have proven to be important elements in building a peaceful society. However, religious counselors faced challenges, such as a public misunderstanding of the concept of religious moderation. To address this issue, religious counselors must actively educate people to respect differences and live a harmonious religious life. Eventually, this study confirms that religious counselors play an important role in fostering a peaceful environment.</p> Mas Ayuna Hasibuan, Hasrat Efendi Samosir Copyright (c) 2024 Mas Ayuna Hasibuan, Hasrat Efendi Samosir http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://ejournal.uinbukittinggi.ac.id/index.php/fuaduna/article/view/8719 Sun, 31 Dec 2023 00:00:00 +0000
