Abstract

The Muslim tradition of scientific thinking was one of the signs of Islam's golden age. However, this tradition was eventually overtaken by the Western tradition of scientific thinking. The Western tradition of thinking was based on positivistic philosophy and influenced the development of science. As a result, psychology was reduced to studying human behavior because it had to be rational and empirical. Secular psychology developed rapidly by dismissing non-epistemic values, and it was criticized. The criticism led to the Islamic movement and psychology as an anti-thesis that began to formulate Islamic psychology. This paper aims to formulate the development of Islamic psychology with an interdisciplinary approach as a recommendation for future studies. The research method uses qualitative methods with library research—data collection techniques through literature study with content analysis techniques. Psychology as a science must integrate with Islamic disciplines, namely ulumuddin and al fikr al Islamiyah. This integration with an interdisciplinary approach results in Islamic psychology included in dirasat Islamiyah. Dirasat Islamiyah integrates fundamental text authority and classical thought, also studied by scientific methods. In conclusion, the integration of psychology and Islam is not only limited to the empirical and rational but needs to look at things beyond that.
