“…However, they were trying to expand their knowledge about Islam and formulate their own interpretations of Islamic texts and teachings. In other words, the findings demonstrate the significant role of religious literacy (Bowling, 2022; Rahman & Valliani, 2016; Siraj, 2016) in promoting identity integration for queer Muslims. The theology of Islam was never intended to be part of this study’s approach or design.…”

“…An increasingly polarized society and using religious images and rhetoric is a problem that accompanies religious pluralism in both Indonesia and Germany [24]. Facing this situation, the diaspora must have an understanding of religious diversity [25]. On the other hand, almost all universities in Indonesia and Germany are experiencing a spate of incidents of religiously motivated bias [5], [26].…”

Radicalism is a severe issue that affects many nations, not just Indonesia. This activity at least shows how the nation will always be connected to radical international movements. Nationalist religious principles must be internalized to stop the development of extremist understanding. Indonesia and Germany collaborated and carried out this exercise to foster a welcoming religious environment. In the face of the onslaught of western extremism, Hujjah Aswaja's training provided ideas for educating the Indonesian Islamic diaspora about religion. The community service team helped for three months during the final phase's tremendous internalization of nationalist religious character ideals. The project's results point to significant increases in wawasan kebangsaan and keagamaan levels. It is anticipated that this event will be able to stimulate nationalism to Indonesia among the diaspora now residing in Germany and will serve as a catalyst for understanding keberagaman from the perspective of Ahlussunnah Wal Jama'ah (Aswaja).

Having six official religions and numerous ethnic-based religions, Indonesia is prone to interfaith conflicts. There have been several interfaith conflicts recorded, but many left unnoticed. This leads to the importance of promoting interfaith communication, in which mass media inevitably play a major role. This research aims to reveal the portrayal of interfaith communication in Indonesia on major online media. There has been a growing body of research on interfaith dialogue, but this study seeks to view it from a wider perspective of communication and put the study in the context of the pandemic, a situation in which people rely more on mediated communication. Practically, this research might contribute to building an initial model of interfaith communication in Indonesia. Theoretically, this study expects to contribute to the development of peace journalism by assessing its premises in the context of interfaith relations. The study uses qualitative content analysis, revealing the theme of news about interfaith encounters. The result shows that online media in Indonesia performed peace journalism by regularly portraying interfaith communications in the aspect of cooperation, but lacking in the portrayal of alternative views and positive experience. This research implicates the need for media to intensify and deepen the coverage of interfaith reporting to further promote the discourse of interfaith harmony.
