NAHDLTUL ULAMA’ RELIGIOUS MODERATION EDUCATION: Analyzing the Social Character Attitudes of Nahdliyin

Abstract

This study will discuss the values ​​of wasathiyah or religious moderation that have become a tradition in the Nahdlatul Ulama which were actually initiated by NU figures in the early days of its establishment and continued to be maintained in the following period, especially in terms of thought. Previous studies on NU's religious moderation already exist, such as the Historical Roots of Islamic Moderation in Nahdlatul Ulama (Fuad, 2020), Contribution and Role of KH. Hasyim Asy'ari framing Moderation Reflecting on NU and Muhammadiyah in Realizing Islamic Moderation Values ​​(Almu'tasim, 1019). Religion based on the Qur'an and Hadith in Indonesia (Farida, 2020), however, the previous studies did not present chronologically and comprehensively the roots of NU's moderate thinking, so that research can complement NU's moderation values ​​and emphasize more on the analytical aspects of thought that developed in NU so that it is more conceptual and easy to understand
