Abstract: This study reconstructs the theological ethics of religious harmony and moderation in Indonesia as a normative-critical reflection rather than a mere policy instrument. Employing qualitative library research, it integrates interfaith theology with Pancasila Theology and the Religious Harmony Trilogy as a normative framework. The findings reveal that universal values—human dignity, justice, and love—serve as the ethical foundation for sustainable harmony. Pancasila Theology is interpreted as an inclusive public theology bridging faith and national life. The study concludes that religious moderation must be understood as a transformative theological praxis that moves beyond formal harmony toward social justice. This research contributes to developing contextual theological ethics to strengthen harmony amidst intolerance.
