Analisis Semiotika John Fiske terhadap Representasi Nilai Moderasi Beragama dalam Dialog Podcast Escape Episode 5 'Fenomena Islam dan Muslim (Munafik)' oleh Raymond Chin dan Ustadz Felix Siauw Kartika, Dewi Nurjayanti, Gita Bustam, Betty Mauli Rosa Semiotic Analysis John Fiske Moderate Religious Values Phenomenon of Islam and Muslims (Hypocrites) Background: The dominance of conservative religious narratives on social media often triggers exclusivism and intolerance, especially among the younger generation. On the other hand, digital media such as podcasts are beginning to be used as alternative spaces for conveying religious messages reflectively and inclusively. Objectives: This study aims to analyse the representation of religious moderation values in the podcast as a form of reflective and contextual digital religious communication. Method: This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach with two analytical methods: thematic analysis using Taguette software and John Fiske's semiotic analysis as a theoretical framework for interpreting symbols and messages in podcast dialogues. Results: The eight central values of religious moderation, tawassuth, tasamuh, i'tidal, syura, anti-violence, tathawwur wa ibtikâr, tasdid, and wasathiyyah, are symbolically and contextually represented through reflective narratives, equal communication, and empathetic discussions between the speakers. Conclusion: Escape podcast episode 5 represents an adaptive narrative of religious moderation, bridging conservatism and religious liberalism, and opening up space for negotiating the meaning of Islam that is more relevant to the lives of the younger generation. Contribution: This study contributes to the development of literature on religious moderation and digital Islamic communication studies and serves as a reference for producing inclusive and contextual digital da'wah content in the era of media transformation.

Reconstruction of the Concept of Interfaith Dialogue from the Perspective of Religious Moderation Afriani, Afriani Maharani , Anggun Tammas Hanifa, Sukma Aulia Interfaith Dialogue Religious Moderation Reconstruction Background: This article is grounded in the reality that interfaith dialogue practices in plural societies tend to be formalistic, elitist, and confined to theological discourse, and therefore have not fully addressed the challenges of intolerance, social polarisation, and disinformation. Objective: This study aims to reconstruct the concept of interfaith dialogue from the perspective of religious moderation to make it more inclusive, contextual, and applicable. Method: The research employs a qualitative method with a constructive-critical approach, grounded in a literature review, and is analysed through stages of deconstruction, critical-comparative analysis, and conceptual reconstruction. Result: The findings indicate the need for a shift in the orientation of dialogue from symbolic-theological to social-transformative, integrating the values of tawazun (balance), tasamuh (tolerance), i‘tidal (justice), and national commitment. The proposed dialogue model is inclusive and participatory, relational and empathetic, and adaptive to contemporary challenges, including those in the digital sphere. Conclusion: Reconstructing interfaith dialogue based on religious moderation can strengthen social cohesion and national harmony. Contribution: This study contributes by reinforcing a theoretical framework of dialogue as a relational paradigm and by offering a conceptual model that may serve as a reference for developing interreligious harmony programs and religious moderation policies.

Objective: This study aims to analyse Qur’anic values as a foundation for religious communication ethics in responding to the dynamics of religious polarisation in digital spaces. Method: The research employs a qualitative approach using thematic exegesis (maudhu‘i). The data are derived from Qur’anic verses related to the principles of moderation (wasathiyah), freedom of religion, human pluralism, tabayyun (information verification), ethics of dialogue, and peaceful relations with non-Muslims. The analysis is conducted through a comparative examination of classical and contemporary exegeses to identify their contextual relevance within the social media ecosystem. Result: The findings indicate that these Qur’anic values establish a normative framework that promotes moderate, inclusive, and verification-based communication while preventing the escalation of digital conflict. Conclusion: The Qur’an serves as a comprehensive ethical guide to reducing religious polarisation in digital spaces by fostering dialogue, tolerance, and responsibility. Contribution: This study enriches contextual exegesis in the digital era and offers a Qur’an-based framework for the ethics of religious communication to address religious polarisation on social media.
