Islamic science and Western science are two rich scientific traditions with a long history and significant contributions to science. Despite some similarities, they also have fundamental differences in methodology, epistemology, and goals. Islamic science flourished during the Middle Ages, driven by intellectual curiosity and the urge to understand God's creation. Muslim scientists combined the revelations of the Koran with observations and experiments to produce advances in a variety of fields, including astronomy, mathematics, physics, optics, and medicine. They emphasized the importance of a systematic scientific method, using hypotheses, experiments, and observations to test theories.Western science, on the other hand, emerged in Europe during the Renaissance and Enlightenment. Western science is characterized by its emphasis on rationalism, empiricism, and secularism. Western scientists challenged the authority of religion and tradition, and focused on developing more rigorous scientific methods, such as controlled experiments and testable hypotheses.

Zam-Zam water is water that appeared during the period of Prophet Ismail AS., long before the birth of Prophet Muhammad SAW. Zam-zam water has received direct testimony and justification from the Prophet Muhammad as the best water on earth which contains many benefits. Explicitly, the properties of Zam-Zam water are contained in the hadith, which is considered authentic according to the scholars. This article, in an integrative-interconnective manner, tries to examine the existence of Zam-Zam water through a hadith perspective and a scientific perspective. From a hadith perspective, zam-zam water will be studied using several hadith critical methodologies, both in terms of the text of the hadith (matn) and the transmission of the narrator (sanad). Meanwhile, through a scientific approach, Zam-Zam water will be researched more deeply so that a scientific fact can be found that the substances contained and the molecules that are arranged in Zam-Zam water are better than other substances or water molecules. In this article, this will be proven, among other things, by the results of research by Masaru Emuto, a water expert from Japan, regarding the power of water in general, the magic of Zam-Zam water, and the beauty of the crystals that Zam-Zam water forms. So, the Prophet Muhammad’s justification for Zam-Zam water is embodied by the truth of modern scientific research facts. So it can be said that the agenda to reconcile religion and science is not in vain.

Science is always associated with general knowledge or science that studies worldly matters only. Some Muslims think that science has nothing to do with Islam or in other words, Islam does not need science. If the Islamic community's opinion about this still exists then Islam is in a danger zone, because Islam actually needs science. Islam and science are not two opposing camps, but rather two very unified camps. If we look deeper, the Koran presents many verses about science. The verses of the Koran about science range from 750 to 1000 verses. In fact, the first revelation that came down to the Prophet Muhammad SAW was the command to read. In the Qur'an, it is explained that paying attention to the universe, which also means studying science, is part of reading the verses of Allah SWT. Meanwhile, the results of research conducted by scientists about the universe do not contradict the Koran which was revealed 1400 years ago. If science and technology are only controlled by non-Muslims, then Muslims will be considered weaker and inferior in the field of science. Therefore, Islam needs the next generation of people who love and understand the contents of the Koran and are not blind to knowledge, especially science. Islam will spread its wings more in the fields of science and technology so that a generation of Muslims who are IMTAQ and SCIENTIFIC will be formed, namely a generation of Muslims who are faithful and devout and master science and technology.

 Science and technology have evolved in tandem with the development pattern of human civilization in this universe. The history of human civilization requires the effort of the manifestation of values within the scope of their own perspective. The above statement can be proven by a strong backing with the meaning of science and technology itself, it is a value and includes cultural views formed by human beings themselves.  

Humans are God's perfect creation. Perfection lies in reason. Apart from intelligence, humans also have a brain as the control center for all human activities. The aim of this research is to examine and discover more deeply about human nerve cells from the perspective of the Koran. This research uses qualitative methods and produces descriptive data through a literature approach. The main sources start from secondary sources including books or journals related to the concept of nerve cells according to religious and scientific views. There are several verses scattered in the surahs of the Koran regarding nerve cells. The word "Naashiyah" in this verse means forelock. Scientific facts about the crown is the part of the forebrain that functions as a controller, memory and decision maker, which is known as Frontal lobe. The information from these verses is true that the forelock is the place where decisions are made and is the measuring point for right or wrong decisions taken. Therefore, Al-Quran information and scientific facts from research results are integrated with each other and show harmony.

PISA results show that Indonesia's science literacy skills are low, so a solution is needed to fix the problem.

Zam-zam water is water that appeared in the Nahi Ismail period, long before the birth of the Prophet Muhammad SAW. Zam-zam water has received direct testimony and justification from the Prophet Muhammad as the best water on earth which contains many benefits. Explicitly, the properties of Zam-Zum water are stated in the hadith, which is considered authentic according to the scholars. This article, in an integrative-interconnective manner, tries to examine the existence of Zam-Zam water through a hadith perspective and a scientific perspective. From a hadith perspective, zam zam water will be studied using several hadith critical methodologies, both from the text of the hadith (mam) or the transmitter’s transmission (sanod). Meanwhile, through a scientific approach, zam-zam water will be researched more deeply so that a scientific fact can be found that the substances contained and the molecules that are arranged in zam-zam water are better than other substances or water molecules. This, in this article, will be proven by: the results of research by Masaru Emuto, a water expert from Japan, regarding the natural power of water, the magic of Zam-Zam water, and the beauty of the crystals that Zam-Zam water forms. Jodi, the Prophet Muhammad’s justification for Zam-Zam water is embodied by the truth of modern scientific research facts. So it can be said that the agenda to reconcile religion and science is not in vain.

Western science and Islamic science are considered different in several aspects. This difference is very visible when Western science arrogantly claims that science is not related to religion and was not born from the church, while Islam believes that science cannot be separated from religion. This can happen because Western science is rooted in ratio while Islamic science is rooted in revelation. This view then gave birth to a dichotomy between general sciences and religious sciences. This is what then encourages Muslim scientists to carry out ijtihad for a paradigm change through the Islamization of science.

About there is no discussion at all about the relationship between religion and science, there are some opinions that say that religion and science are in conflict, independence, dialogue and integration. Then comes the concept of integration between science and religion, namely Islamic science, which is a concept from Mehdi Gholsani in response regarding the relationship between both (religion and science). According to Mehdi Golshani, science is not just a collection theories, concepts and natural laws only. But it is also part of metaphysical reality in which divine values are stored. With In other words, science cannot be reduced to the physical realm alone, but must combined with the supernatural. So that it becomes a unit that is not can be separated between the two. The method used in this research is a document analysis method with a qualitative approach. Collection technique the data used is library research and literature study. Objective the purpose of writing this research is to understand the relationship between religion and science, knowing Mehdi Golshani's contribution to religious epistemology and science, and the concept of Islamic science according to Mehdi Golshani. This will happen discussed and is the focus of this article.

The Al-Qur'an is one of the sources of knowledge that has absolute truth. This source of knowledge does not only focus on knowledge about worship and muamalah, but also on scientific insights, namely scientific facts. These scientific cues are found in the verses of the Qur'an which are scattered throughout the surah and are referred to as kauniyah verses. One of the scientific signs explained in the Qur'an is about nerve cells. There are six verses spread across three suras in the Al-Qur'an with an indirect pattern of conveying information so that it requires further study to understand the meaning and scientific signals. The word "naashiyah" contained in the six verses means forelock, it is stated that the forelock is a guarantee for responsibility for dishonorable actions or wrongdoing. Scientific facts about the crown is the part of the front brain that functions as a controller, memory and decision maker, which is called the frontal lobe. The information from these six verses is true that the crown is the place where decisions are made and is the measuring point for the right or wrong decisions taken. Therefore, information from the Koran and scientific facts from research results are integrated with each other and show harmony.

In essence, Islamic education leads humans to the path of truth so that every believer is protected from various forms of deviation. Allah SWT and the Prophet have mentioned and explained to mankind the importance of instilling everything related to Islamic education. Speaking of science, it needs to be known that a religious person will have better faith if he understands everything that exists in the universe, this means that the natural phenomena in the world are a knowledge and greatness of the Almighty God. This study aims to determine the essence of Islamic education in science learning. The research method used is library research. From this study, it was found that humans who unite the essence of Islamic education will obtain true faith, morals and morals and of course an effort in worshiping the One God. The existence of science can be a bridge or means in proving the power of Allah so that by studying science we can learn religious knowledge correctly.

One of the greatest forms of civilization is mastering the field of science. Islam is the last religion on earth. Of course, he has teachings that his people should obey. Islam directs its people to study all kinds science for social purposes. Islam also cannot deny that its people should study science for the sake of sustainability. Islamic civilization and it was taught by the Abbasid daulah. However, there are also various sects in Islam who reject it. The existence of science within the body of Islam, especially the traditionalist group which is puritanical in nature. As time progressed the West as superpowers ruling the world, became kings in the land of Islam because of their prowess in mastering science and the Islamic ummah only saw and reflected on his backwardness from Westerners without wanting to try to rise from his downturn. Nasr emerged as a pioneer of Islamic science to restore the glory of Islam in the past, he considered Western science to be very secular arid and actually destroying the world's ecosystem. Nasr offers a combination of science and Islam so that science feels beautiful and not rigid through Islamic teachings with a Sufistic approach.

Science education in early childhood also has a vital role in supporting cognitive and creative development. This research aims to explore the benefits provided by science education in stimulating critical thinking, problem solving and innovation skills in children. Through qualitative and quantitative approaches, data is collected from various sources, including classroom observations, interviews with educators, and analysis of children's learning outcomes. The results showed that children who were involved in science activities from an early age showed significant improvements in cognitive skills such as memory, concentration and analytical abilities. Apart from that, science education has also been proven to encourage children's creativity by enriching their imagination and ability to think outside the box. This article concludes that the integration of science education in the PAUD curriculum not only supports children's intellectual development but also forms a strong foundation for creativity and innovation in the future. Therefore, it is important for educators and policy makers to recognize and prioritize science education as an essential component in early childhood education, science education must be a top priority in early childhood education strategies by educators and policy makers.

Project-based science learning with MELESAT content using loose parts is the choice as a learning model for young children to build new knowledge, with a scientific mindset children are getting to know Al-Khaliq, exploring new things, being creative, innovative, thinking out of the box, are adaptive to the environment, able to produce work and can develop and practice skills related to the real world. One way to learn science more constructively and meaningfully is through project-based learning that integrates MELESAT components using loose parts as open-ended play materials. Through continuous particSainstion in various play activities in the classroom and outside the classroom, children are actively involved in dialogue that is rich in scientific thinking patterns by utilizing complex and abstract scientific process skills such as observing, asking, observing, predicting, evaluating, and comparing. Discussions with children during the learning process about scientific thinking concepts related to mathematics, existence, literacy, engineering, science, art and technology merge with strengthening coaching by teachers for children during the learning process. The results of this research led to the conclusion that with the right teacher guidance, the learning process provides many opportunities for children to develop 21st century skills to prepare children for life in the future.  

The main material for writing this article comes from the routine recitation of Ngaji Filsafat held at the Jendral Sudirman Mosque in Yogyakarta on Wednesday, December 13, 2023 with Dr. Fahruddin Faiz, M.Ag. The purpose of writing this article is to find out the extent of the relationship between religion and science.  The relationship between religion and science is a complementary relationship. How science can only detect things that are visible to the eye, realistic, musyahadah. Meanwhile, religion, in addition to being able to detect things that are musyahadah, is also able to know the reality of the unseen. In this life, humans cannot be separated from these two things. So that's when humans don't just feel enough with science, humans need religion too. Vice versa, when humans only rely on the supernatural, humans will find it difficult to overcome the problems that occur in everyday life. As was the case in 2019 when a pandemic occurred. Then science played an important role at that time. Although not a few of the religionists who “surrender” to God's destiny. Religion and science are both fitrah, a very basic/basaliy soul urge. If there is a difference between religion and science it is because the footing is different. A scientist is open, will seek and search for new theories according to need. While religion has crowned itself as the absolute/final truth. It needs to be said that science and religion are both interpretations. Science interprets real phenomena, the reality of the universe, while religion interprets God's verses, religious texts. From this, science and religion can complement each other and there is a meeting point.
