== Principles and frameworks == The Islamization of Knowledge emphasizes the integration of Islamic teachings with modern disciplines by critiquing and re-evaluating contemporary fields through an Islamic perspective.<ref>{{cite journal | last=Stenberg | first=Leif | year=1986 | title=Seyyed Hossein Nasr and Ziauddin Sardar on Islam and Science: marginalization or modernization of a religious tradition | journal=Social Epistemology | volume=10 | issue=10 }}</ref> Ismail al-Faruqi’s 12-step work plan systematically integrates Islamic principles with modern disciplines. It focuses on mastery of modern sciences, understanding Islamic knowledge in various fields, and establishing the relevance of Islamic values to contemporary academic disciplines. Al-Faruqi's approach critiques Western epistemologies and recasts them within an Islamic worldview, harmonizing ethical and intellectual pursuits with the tenets of Islam.<ref>{{cite journal | last=Madani | first=Rehaf A. | year=2016 | title=Islamization of Science | journal=International Journal of Islamic Thought | volume=9 | pages=51–63 | doi=10.24035/ijit.09.2016.006 | url=http://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/9a2b/4b60f0b8e7fc39467d9a23c399a2568b731a.pdf }}</ref> In Southeast Asia, [[Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas]] developed a complementary framework. He emphasized linguistic and philosophical foundations, focusing on the role of ''adab'' (proper conduct) and the metaphysical aspects of knowledge. His contributions shaped the curricula of institutions like ISTAC, which he helped establish.<ref>{{cite book | last=Musa | first=Mohd Faizal | year=2021 | title=Naquib Al-Attas’ Islamization of Knowledge: Its Impact on Malay Religious Life, Literature, Language, and Culture | publisher=ISEAS – Yusof Ishak Institute | location=Singapore }}</ref> Abdullah Berghout, a contemporary scholar, proposed a quality-management system model for Islamization, incorporating Islamic perspectives into modern academic disciplines. His framework emphasizes input, procedure, output, and feedback, focusing on intellectual, psychomotor, and affective domains, with particular emphasis on the affective domain.<ref>{{cite journal | last=Berghout | first=Abdullah | year=2011 | title=Islamisation in Modern Sciences: The Way Forward | journal=Revelation and Science | volume=1 | issue=3 | pages=21–34 }}</ref> The implementation of Islamization involves steps such as mastering modern disciplines, analyzing their history and development, mastering Islamic legacy, and critically evaluating modern knowledge from an Islamic perspective. It includes synthesizing Islamic and modern knowledge and reformulating these disciplines within an Islamic framework.<ref>{{cite journal | last=Madani | first=Rehaf A. | year=2016 | title=Islamization of Science | journal=International Journal of Islamic Thought | volume=9 | pages=51–63 | doi=10.24035/ijit.09.2016.006 | url=http://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/9a2b/4b60f0b8e7fc39467d9a23c399a2568b731a.pdf }}</ref>
