The discourse of integration of religion and science could enrich research of al-Qur'an study. As a principal source of Islam, al-Qur'an also becomes object research of the philosophy of science study, especially related to the development of science-based on religion. Within the framework of the philosophy of science, this article presents a study on the possibility to develop science-based on alQur'an, which is called "theistic science". Although the efforts to find root of science on al-Qur'an develop so far, or to interpret al-Qur'an by utilizing the result of science research, in the framework of the philosophy of science, but it is not surely called a "science theistic", even so perhaps it is not science, but it may be merely indeed not scientific. There is a pattern of development of science which is based on religion, but it is really scientific, which consists of three layers of philosophical basis, they are theoretical framework, scientific paradigm, and theological basis. By following this pattern carefully, the development of science not only can avoid the pattern of pseudoscience, but it will create science with high scientific value, but it is still within the framework of al-Qur'an. It is organized based on the embryonal concept from al-Qur'an. However, this pattern is a collective project, systemic, and cultural in the form of a grand project.Keywords: Pseudoscience, Embryonal Concept, Scientific Culture, Theological Basis.

The issue of integration of science, in fact, is not only interesting to follow as a scientific discourse, but even more is viewed within the framework of the philosophy of science. The establishment of the Islamic universities after the long process of conversion, cannot be denied, making the issue more than just a discourse, but it has become a scientific building. Of course, it is not necessarily noticed, which one is better, or which one is correct, but should be noticed as an option, as the result of the dialectic of the initiators'' mind with the social, Islamic, and scientific environment surrounding them, as well as precipitated thought which could be formulated. Philosophical that appears is the possibility of the science-based on religion becoming scientific. If it is according to its history, the study of the Philosophy of Science is related to two issues, they are the scientific criteria and the development of science, then the discourse of integration of science, requires the Philosophy of Science to notice it as the latest issues, associated with the possibility of the birth of new scientific tradition and scientific culture, even with the advent of methodology, scientific activity, scientific work and new products of science, which are in a religious context, which puts religion as an integral part of a scientific building.
Sunan Kalijaga was known as a creative da’i in spreading da'wah. One of the media for his da’wah is a literary work entitled Suluk Linglung. In the Suluk Linglung manuscript, two da’wah strategies had been employed by Sunan Kalijaga, both of which were expected to be relevant if applied in Indonesia today, considering the many issues of radicalism. This research is a literature review. Data were collected by using documentation method through a research on Suluk Linglung. Therefore, to dissect the contents of the manuscript, the author uses qualitative research methods and Gadamer's hermeneutic approach. Finally, it suggested that Sunan Kalijaga used two da'wah strategies, Sufistic da'wah strategy and multicultural da’wah strategy. It is expected that the use of the strategies in the current da’wah can dismiss the radicalism movement. Therefore, it brings out the principle of da’wah that is gentle, friendly, and nurturing to people, or da'wah rahmatan li-l 'alamin.Sunan Kalijaga dikenal sebagai seorang da’i yang kreatif dalam menyebarkan dakwah. Salah satu media dakwah beliau adalah melalui karya sastra yang berjudul Suluk Linglung. Dalam manuskrip Suluk Linglung tercermin dua strategi dakwah yang pernah dilakukan oleh Sunan Kalijaga, yang keduanya itu diharapkan akan relevan jika diterapkan di Indonesia pada zaman sekarang meninjau banyak sekali isu radikalisme. Penelitian ini berjenis kajian kepustakaan. Metode pengumpulan data menggunakan metode dokumentasi melalui penelitian manuskrip Suluk Linglung. Oleh karenanya, agar dapat membedah isi manuskrip Suluk Linglung, penulis menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dan menggunakan pendekatan hermeneutika Gadamer. Adapun untuk teknik analisa data menggunakan teknik analisis isi. Akhirnya, setelah melakukan penelitian lebih lanjut peneliti mendapatkan hasil bahwasanya dalam manuskrip Suluk Linglung, Sunan Kalijaga menggunakan dua strategi dakwah yang meliputi strategi dakwah sufistik dan strategi dakwah multikultural. Jika dua strategi dakwah tersebut diterapkan pada zaman sekarang, maka diharapkan akan berimplikasi terhadap gerakan radikalisme yakni menepis gerakan radikalisme. Sehingga, akan memunculkan prinsip dakwah yang lembut, ramah, dan mengayomi kepada mad’u atau dapat disebut sebagai dakwah rahmatan li-l ‘alamin.
This article departs from the assumption that education is actually a scientific activity, in a sense related to the implementation, development and dissemination of knowledge. However, in education, study of knowledge and it's relation with the educational process remains a neglected area. In the perspective of philosophy of science, contemporary issue to this is the issue of the nature of science and the growth of science. Relation to education, a growing problem then is how the consequences of building science to education. If education means the process of promoting and developing human knowledge, how should the process be done? This article asserts that the concept and praxis of education proved to have a relationship with the scientific problem. Criticism of the nature of science is certainly going to be able to clarify the pedagogical logic of educational praxis. Theory and methodology of education has become a pretty interesting study in pedagogy. While "educational paradigm" is a philosophical discussion in Philosophy of Education, Sociology and History of Education, actually there is another problem that has not been touched, namely the problem of belief, principles of life, and faith in relation to education. This problem is referred to as the "Theology of Education," a field that examines the values , spirit, and religious aspects as an integral part of education.
It has been over a decade, in which the journey of State Islamic University (UIN) Malang in developing new scientific paradigm has appeared to be quite successful, particularly in establishing and developing an “image” of Islamic-based sciences in their new forms. The success can be observed from, among other, people’s demand—from various segments of the society—to a number of books written by the lecturers of UIN Malang. Such tremendously remarkable achievement becomes certainly a worthy matter to observe and discuss, especially from the Philosophy of Science’s point of view concerning on how the pattern of scientific development—as a part of academic traditions—built by this Islamic higher educational institution. This article finds an important information that the development of science in UIN Malang has arrived upon the development of new theories and concepts, by placing al-Qur’ân and al-Sunnah as its main and fundamental foundations. It can be generally observed that there has been a sort of a pattern of “Quranic justification” to the sciences developed by UIN Malang. It means that any scientific activity is intended to prove the “scientificness” of al-Qur’ân. It has been also assumed, moreover, that al-Qur’ân is the book of science.
The relationship between science and religion is one of the issues that has not been resolved completely until now. Although some universities in Indonesia and even Malaysia have developed academic traditions with the paradigm of integration of science, they still leave a fundamental problem related to aspects of scientific science developed with religion. To meet scientific and objective criteria, science must avoid the element of subjectivity of scientists, and eliminate the intersubjectivity of tradition and culture. This paper will analyze, especially to emphasize the position of philosophy in the development of religion-based science, as well as reflection for the development of philosophical sciences. This paper will discuss two main problems, the investigation of the religious dimension for science, and the role of religion-based science development for the development of philosophical sciences. The study found that in addition to the theoretical framework and scientific paradigm, there is one more thing that cannot be left behind in the process of developing science, namely the theological assumptions or theological dimensions of science. So that the basis of the development of science not only consists of theories and paradigms, but also theological assumptions. This article concludes that the theological dimension allows for the development of religion-based science.
