Conclusion: The study concludes that with appropriate support, the integration of philosophy can play a crucial role in shaping students who not only possess a strong religious understanding but also the ability to think critically and participate in global dialogue. The implications of this research emphasize the importance of a more dynamic and reflective approach in Islamic religious education to address contemporary challeng
