The revitalization of Islamic Religious Education (IRE) based on religious moderation is a strategic urgency amidst growing intolerance, religious polarization, and pluralism crisis among the younger generation. This study aims to analyze integrative and contextual strategies for revitalizing IRE in order to cultivate tolerant and inclusive student character. Employing a qualitative approach through literature review and document analysis, data were collected from academic journals, curriculum documents, and relevant research reports. The findings indicate that the success of IRE revitalization is strongly influenced by three main factors: the integration of moderation values into the curriculum, the transformative capacity of teachers as moderation agents, and the implementation of innovative and contextual teaching strategies. However, the practice of moderation in educational settings still faces substantial challenges, including cultural resistance, limited teacher training, and the absence of supportive institutional policies. This study concludes that a successful IRE revitalization requires a systemic and holistic approach involving curriculum reform, teacher capacity building, and multi-sectoral collaboration. The findings contribute both conceptually and practically to the development of a moderate, inclusive, and transformative Islamic education system, relevant to the challenges of globalization and multiculturalism
