The main objective of this study was to examine and analyze the perception of Muslim engineering students in Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP) towards Islamic critical thinking. A survey using a close-ended questionnaire based on the literatures on Islamic critical thinking was conducted. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive analysis. The study found that Muslim engineering students in UTP have positive perception towards and possess basic Islamic critical thinking skills.
