Still, **[RELIGION IN MOROCCO](https://www.moroccan.vacations/blog/questions-about-morocco/what-religion-is-practiced-in-morocco/)** is more open, free and tolerant as compared to other countries; however it is its societies beliefs and historical narratives that have contributed to the hindrance of being more successful at engaging with people from other faiths as they end up meaningfully being isolated from the people from other religions.


The Moroccan constitution although it acknowledges this harmony of Islam and Judaism seems ambiguous regarding integration and solidarity practices in Christian minorities, Moroccan as well as foreigners. Freedom of religion is veiled in ambiguity leaving the state read only to properly punish such conversions, not the conversion itself.

Pluralism is further disturbed by low religious knowledge and collective recollection of colonialism that deeply rooted hatred, which hinder the efforts towards peaceful coexistence. Reporting on traumatic experiences in history, overlapping with inadequate religious education in institutions, together cause people to wrongly think of non-Muslims. This obstacle build up misunderstanding and division between religious sects.

The true character of the implementation of sustainable covenantal pluralism in Morocco is drawn between the lines of the involvement of in people and intellectual agreement across religious differences.The key lies in the standard acceptance from natives of pluralism and engaging in a dialogue that seeks to go beyond fixed narratives, which will serve as the platform for building a more cohesive and accepted society.

Undertaking this to-do task, it is necessary to cope between those concepts that academia has and/or has not accepted, with the way in which a community is seeing it. The educational projects which have got the central aim of developing religious literacy and cultural interaction surely can be very effective in dispelling the misconceptions and building friendly relations between people.

Primarily, the envisioned success of community-centered **[pluralism in Morocco](https://www.huffpost.com/entry/pluralism-in-islam-betwee_b_7698090)** depends on people and institutions' ability to eradicate the stereotypes, eliminate the intolerance, and fully embrace the variety of the religious world. This is done by upholding the standards of intellectual curiosity and mutual respect which allows Morocco to cement their title as the guiding light of pluralism and coexistence in the region.
