| Abstract | ||
| This study aims to examine the intricate correlation between religion and tolerance. It illustrates the function of religion in fostering tolerance, recognizing its multifaceted effects. The paper examines a literature review encompassing scholarly viewpoints on the relationship between tolerance and religion, conceptualizations of tolerance, and determinants impacting the interplay between religion and tolerance. The research results show that religions can cultivate prosocial qualities and exert effects that endorse or contradict tolerance. The study's findings suggest that promoting tolerance necessitates the differentiation between extremism and faith, a comprehensive understanding of background and historical context of religious texts, and fostering exposure and respect among different religious beliefs. Abrahamic religions typically prioritize tolerance; however, they are susceptible to misinterpretations that might weaken this principle. The interplay among religion, cultures, and tolerance is intricate and contingent upon individual circumstances. The argument posits the importance of adopting a meticulous and contextual comprehension of religious influences to distinguish between teachings and extremist distortions and foster harmonious cohabitation. | ||
