Abstract

The social, cultural, and religious diversity that characterizes educational environments requires schools to foster students' inclusive attitudes through well-planned and sustainable learning processes. Islamic Religious Education (IRE) plays a strategic role in cultivating the values of tolerance, respect for diversity, and religious moderation, which are essential for living harmoniously in a pluralistic society. This study aims to map the Islamic Religious Education curriculum in fostering students' inclusive attitudes at SMP Negeri 2 Kota Bima. The study employed a qualitative approach using a case study design. The research was conducted at SMP Negeri 2 Kota Bima. The participants consisted of the principal, the vice principal for curriculum affairs, Islamic Religious Education teachers, and selected students, who were recruited through purposive sampling. The data comprised primary data collected through classroom observations and in-depth interviews, as well as secondary data obtained from curriculum documents, instructional materials, and other supporting documents. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, which includes data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings reveal that the Islamic Religious Education curriculum has systematically integrated the values of tolerance, religious moderation, patriotism, and respect for diversity into various components of the teaching and learning process. Its implementation is further reinforced by an inclusive school culture that provides equal opportunities for all students to participate in educational and religious activities. The curriculum mapping contributes significantly to strengthening students' inclusive attitudes by promoting social awareness, respect for differences, and the ability to coexist harmoniously within a diverse community. This study concludes that the Islamic Religious Education curriculum plays a pivotal role in developing an inclusive school culture while reinforcing the principles of religious moderation within the educational environment.
