Objective: This research aims to identify and analyze effective strategies for reducing religious conflicts in the Islamic world, particularly between Shia and Sunni Muslims. The main objective is to examine the challenges arising from these conflicts and propose comprehensive solutions to enhance unity. Methodology: The study employs qualitative content analysis, with data collected through documentary and library methods, as well as in-depth interviews with experts and religious scholars. This approach allows for a deep exploration of the topic's various dimensions.
Findings: The findings indicate that reducing religious conflicts requires a multifaceted approach, including strengthening interfaith dialogue, cultural and social exchanges, the constructive role of media and education, organizing joint scientific conferences, emphasizing shared religious principles, countering extremism, and fostering scientific and cultural collaborations.
Conclusion: This research emphasizes the importance of collective and ongoing efforts by governments, religious leaders, intellectual elites, and the public to achieve unity and convergence in the Islamic world. Such efforts, if coordinated and purposeful, can reduce tensions and promote a culture of tolerance, forbearance, and peaceful coexistence through the dissemination of shared Islamic values.
