Tolerance Education at Nurul Ummahat Girls' Islamic Boarding School, Kota Gede, Yogyakarta

Tolerance is crucial for maintaining social harmony in Indonesia's diverse society. In the context of interreligious relations, tolerance refers to the respectful acceptance and acknowledgment of various religious beliefs, practices, and traditions of others. This attitude does not develop spontaneously but requires systematic cultivation through educational programs. Islamic boarding schools, such as Nurul Ummahat Putri in Kota Gede, Yogyakarta, play a vital role in fostering a tolerant attitude. This study explores tolerance education at this school using qualitative methods, including interviews with founders, teachers, and students. Findings reveal that Nurul Ummahat Putri promotes tolerance through student interactions and community dialogue, supported by live-in programs, tolerance training, and interfaith activities. The school also engages in community empowerment to foster tolerant behavior. The study concludes that Pesantren Nurul Ummahat Putri significantly enhances tolerance education, thereby supporting the development of positive interreligious relations in Kota Gede, Yogyakarta.
