Abstract

Science continues to develop along with the times, and science and technology undergo many changes very quickly, but on the other hand, Religion moves very slowly, with these differences becoming disharmony towards religion and science and technology caused by the dichotomy of Religion and Science. In this matter, Islamic Religious Education has a very important and strategic role in integrating religion and science. Islamic Religious Education has a very important goal, namely to develop transcendental knowledge or enter into the truth of revelation. The role of the teacher is very important in carrying out knowledge transformation activities and the transformation of Islamic values and technology that leads to the benefit of mankind. Islam is a religion of rahmatan lil alamin which teaches the principles and regulations brought by the Prophet Muhammad to be conveyed to mankind so that they can be carried out in life. One characteristic of Islam is its emphasis on knowledge (science). Al-Qur’an and Al-Sunnah invite Muslims to seek and gain knowledge of wisdom and place knowledgeable people to a high degree. If we pay attention to the verses of the Al-Qur’an regarding the command to seek knowledge, we will find that the order in general, including the sciences, called Religion, is what has emphasized in the Qur’an whether knowledge is beneficial or not. The criterion of useful knowledge is knowledge aimed at getting closer to the Khaliq as a form of dedication to Him.
