<![CDATA[Islamization of science is one of the significant ideas in contemporary Islamic thought that seeks to reexamine the relationship between scientific knowledge, Islamic values, and human worldviews. This idea emerged as a response to the development of modern science, which, despite making substantial contributions to the advancement of civilization, is often understood within an epistemological framework that separates knowledge from spiritual, moral, and metaphysical dimensions. This article aims to analyze the epistemological foundations of the Islamization of science, examine the thoughts of Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas and Ismail Raji al-Faruqi, and explore their relevance to the development of contemporary knowledge. This study employs a qualitative approach using library research and conceptual-comparative analysis. The findings indicate that the Islamization of science does not merely involve providing religious legitimacy to scientific theories or incorporating Qur'anic verses into scientific discoveries. Rather, it constitutes a critical effort to reassess the assumptions, concepts, objectives, and ethical implications of scientific knowledge based on the Islamic worldview. Al-Attas emphasizes the importance of liberating knowledge from secular worldview elements that are incompatible with Islam, whereas al-Faruqi emphasizes the integration of modern knowledge with Islamic principles through the reconstruction of academic disciplines. This article concludes that the Islamization of science remains relevant when developed through critical dialogue among revelation, reason, empirical experience, and moral responsibility, without disregarding scientific methodology or the diversity of approaches within the Islamic intellectual tradition.]]>
