Integration Of Knowledge From The Perspective Of Taha Jabir Al-Alwani

This article explores the thinking and ideology of the Muslim scholar, Syeikh Taha Jabir Al-Alwani, and the approach taken in describing the integration of knowledge from his viewpoint. Al-Alwani was the pioneer of many ground-breaking original concepts and ideas, such as the Islamization of Knowledge. It is a phenomenon where the idea of dualism has been used in the educational institutions, and research has also shown that there has been a mounting concern amongst other Muslim countries which graduates lead a life, not by Islamic principles upheld in the Quran and the Sunnah. The researcher described the lack of skill set as a gap throughout the study. The aim of the study is to reveal the skills needed to combine Islamic and Scientific knowledge. This study adopts mixed-methods to fix analysis concerns. Besides, Al-Alwani emphasizes the cosmic Quranic methodology which can be differentiated by a collection of Qur’anic methodological determinants which he has detailed.: 1) al-Tawheed as the spectrum of the Qur'anic worldview, 2) merge two readings which are the reading of the Qur'an and the formed cosmos, and 3) the structural harmony of the Qur'an and the cosmic realities which are interrelated. Besides, Alwani believes that the integration of disclosed and scientific information demanded the reading of the pair. Al-Alwani claims that the effective convergence of understanding has taken place when: 1) the discovery of the methodological relationship between methodological coherence in the Qur'anic verses expressed in the Qur'an's structural and its inimitability, natural law, 2) the greater the knowledge of revelation and the cosmos, the greater the scope for integration between revelation and science. 3) the methodological relationship between the revelation approach and the associated universe methodology. 4) the individual should have adequate knowledge of the Qur'an and science. As the researcher has found in-depth extension from Al-Alwani, it will ultimately lead to the development of the skill set to combine both Islamic and Scientific Knowledge.
