Saintis Muslim di zaman silam dan masa kini memainkan peranan penting dalam perkembangan ilmu sains, teknologi, kejuruteraan dan matematik (STEM). Sumbangan dan pencapaian mereka telah direkod dalam pelbagai dokumen seperti manuskrip, buku, dan artikel jurnal. Di sebalik itu, aspek psikologi terutamanya motivasi menjadi ruang yang sangat menarik untuk diteliti dengan lebih lanjut. Oleh itu, kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengungkap faktor pendorong yang melatari minat dan usaha para saintis Muslim dalam mengembangkan ilmu STEM di era masing-masing. Dengan menggunakan model PRISMA, terdapat enam (6) buah artikel penyelidikan yang diterbitkan oleh jurnal berwasit antara tahun 2014-2024 telah dirangkumkan berdasarkan kriteria yang ditetapkan. Hasil analisis literatur secara sistematik mendapati bahawa para saintis Muslim berasal dari pelbagai negara dan memiliki latar belakang pendidikan yang berbeza antara satu sama lain. Daripada aspek motivasi, faktor intrinsik dan ekstrinsik seperti sikap ingin tahu dan minat yang tinggi, pemikiran kritikal dalam penyelesaian masalah, pengiktirafan akademik, kefahaman agama Islam, dan proses perkembangan diri telah mendorong para saintis Muslim untuk menguasai lebih daripada satu bidang STEM dan memberi sumbangan yang signifikan dalam bidang masing-masing. Justeru, kedua-dua bentuk motivasi ini perlu digarap dalam diri generasi seterusnya agar minat dan usaha mereka dalam bidang STEM memberi manfaat dan kebaikan kepada masyarakat dan negara.
