Religion is a fundamental aspect of human life that shapes beliefs, values, and social behavior. In Islamic studies, religion is often examined through normative, theological, historical, and sociological approaches. However, the phenomenological approach offers a different perspective by emphasizing the understanding of religious experiences from the viewpoint of believers themselves. This study aims to analyze the role of the phenomenology of religion in Islamic studies, particularly in understanding religious consciousness, spiritual experience, and the manifestation of Islamic teachings in the lives of Muslims. This research employs a qualitative approach using a systematic literature review method by examining books, scientific journals, and relevant academic sources related to phenomenology and Islamic studies. The findings reveal that the phenomenological approach contributes significantly to understanding religion as a lived experience rather than merely a doctrinal system. In Islamic studies, phenomenology helps scholars comprehend the meanings behind religious practices, rituals, symbols, and spiritual experiences of Muslims. Furthermore, this approach promotes a more inclusive, objective, and comprehensive understanding of Islam amidst contemporary religious diversity. The study concludes that phenomenology of religion serves as an important methodological framework in enriching Islamic studies by integrating subjective religious experiences with objective academic analysis.
