<![CDATA[The Islamization of Science (IoS) addresses the epistemological crisis caused by secular scientific paradigms that detach knowledge from spiritual values. This study aims to characterize the structural pillars and implementation outcomes of an institutionalized IoS program. Using a qualitative case study at Universitas Darussalam Gontor, data were gathered through semi-structured interviews, participatory observations, and document analysis. The findings reveal three empirical pillars of implementation: first, a curriculum integrating Sunnatullah in natural sciences and Maqasid al-Shari’ah in social sciences; second, a teaching methodology centered on "de-westernization," which involves sifting and modifying secular knowledge to align with Islamic principles; and third, an institutional culture driven by faculty who serve as ethical role models and mentors. While the program has made significant strides in the cognitive domain, evidenced by students' understanding of ethical frameworks, there remains a notable gap in the affective and psychomotor domains. This gap is reflected in inconsistent ethical decision-making in daily social interactions and in difficulties applying theoretical knowledge to the practical aspects of professional character. Future research should prioritize the development of affective-behavioral assessment tools and the conduct of comparative institutional studies. This study contributes a framework that balances spiritual-intellectual rigor and addresses contemporary integration challenges in Islamic higher education.]]>
