This study analyzes Ahmad Qodri Abdillah Azizy’s knowledge integration paradigm as the philosophical foundation of the Unity of Science paradigm in Islamic higher education. A qualitative library research approach was employed using Azizy’s works and relevant literature on knowledge integration, Unity of Science, and Islamic educational philosophy. Data were analyzed through content and conceptual analysis. The findings indicate that Azizy’s paradigm is highly compatible with Unity of Science by positioning tawhid as the ontological foundation of knowledge, integrating revelation, reason, and empirical experience as complementary epistemological sources, and emphasizing human welfare as the axiological purpose of science. Azizy’s paradigm provides the philosophical and epistemological basis, while Unity of Science represents its institutional implementation through curriculum, research, community engagement, and academic culture. These findings affirm the relevance of Azizy’s thought in strengthening a holistic and integrative Islamic knowledge system.
