Philosophy of science actualization for Islamic science development

Abstract

Philosophy is a free-thinking, radical, and universal method of obtaining a truth, and the philosophy of science is the free-thinking, radical, and universal application of science principles and rules. The philosophy of science is not a methodology but is a reflective process rooted in the principles of science. The philosophy of science represents a component of philosophy, not only a research method or a scientific paper's procedures, and it serves as the foundation and direction of scientific development, which is continually seeking truth or reality (unfinished journey). Cases of deterioration in the field of Islamic social sciences include exact or natural sciences. Discussions on Islamic scholarly epistemology show similar problems to those of Western epistemology. This study reviews the methodologies, truth, and objectivity. Conducting philosophy of science procedures instils confidence in what has previously been defined as a science “scientific statement”. In this case, the philosophy of science offers a wide range of approaches or paradigm models, and various methods can be adopted by all sciences, including the Islamic religion sciences.
