religious harmony
Faiths living peacefully
Religious harmony is peaceful coexistence among different faiths, marked by mutual respect and tolerance rather than conflict.
The term appears often in discussions of pluralistic societies where multiple religions share space: Singapore promotes religious harmony through strict laws against incitement.
It implies more than mere absence of violence—active cooperation and understanding between religious communities.
