Abstract

The deviated assumptions between religion, especially Islam, and science have been in vogue for a while. Many people today explicitly distort the foundation norms of Islam and what is taught in today's modern science and culture. To illustrate, Islamophobia is a common perception of Islam—portraying it as violent, terror-filled, and inhumane. Experts are beginning to realize that there is a big mistake to distinguish between religion and science. For instance, it turns out that many of today's scientific discoveries were written thousands of years ago in the Qur’an, the Muslim holy book. Al-Isra 7 calls upon humans to practice more kindness and mutual respect towards fellow humans, while Al-Baqarah 205 emphasizes the prohibition against destroying the earth, including plants and livestock. Indonesia is a country that has managed to unite multiculturalism and has become one of the countries with the largest Muslim population. The state does not distinguish between religion and science. The state harmonizes Islam and science through Pancasila as the kalimatun sawa. The data in this paper are sourced from reviews, literature relevant to the writing. The results of the review, as well as the relevant literature, are then analyzed and presented. © 2023 Published by the ISTES Organization
