Abstract

Indonesia has experienced various incidents such as terror, bombings and hostage-taking as a result of acts of terrorism committed by people who are radical and intolerant of differences. It cannot be denied that Indonesia is a pluralistic country with differences in ethnicity, customs, language and religion. Thus, in 2019, the Government of Indonesia seeks to strengthen religious moderation as a concept for preventing and overcoming terrorism and radicalism. Majlis taklim as a non-formal educational institution is the main target in strengthening religious moderation, especially for mothers who have a desire to study religion. Therefore, counseling on religious moderation was given to the ladies of the taklim assembly of the Asy-Syamsu Mosque, Karyamulya, Cirebon City which coincided with RT/RW 02/05.
