Abstract

This research method is descriptive qualitative with a case study approach, involving participant observation, and interviews with 30 students, 3 lecturers, and 3 education administrators. The results of the study indicate that Islamic philosophy education that integrates theory and practice can increase students' awareness of Islamic values and develop critical thinking skills in facing the challenges of the times.
