Studi Tentang Hubungan Antara Islam Dan Sains

This study aims to examine the relationship between Islam and science from epistemological, historical, and educational perspectives, and to trace how the pattern of their relationship can be understood comprehensively amid the persistent dichotomy between religious and general sciences in some Islamic educational institutions. The method used is library research with a descriptive-qualitative approach, collecting, reviewing, and analyzing various primary and secondary sources such as scientific journal articles, previous research findings, and the intellectual heritage of classical and contemporary Muslim scholars. The results show that Islam and science are not fundamentally in opposition, but rather hold an integrative and complementary relationship, as reflected in the concept of tawhid al-‘ilm (unity of knowledge), which views revelation and reason as two sources of knowledge originating from the same source of truth, namely Allah SWT. The history of Islamic civilization during the classical period, particularly the Abbasid era, proves that Muslims once reached the peak of scientific glory through the contributions of figures such as Ibn Sina, Al-Khwarizmi, Ibn al-Haytham, and Jabir ibn Hayyan, whose ideas became an important foundation for the rise of modern science in the West. This study also emphasizes the importance of the integration-interconnection paradigm of knowledge as a solution to the dichotomy of science, in order to build a holistic Islamic education that is rational as well as spiritual, so that the science developed remains grounded in Islamic ethical and moral values.
