The Islamic Perspective on Environmental Conservation

Islam places great emphasis on environmental stewardship and the responsible use of natural resources.

Stewardship (Khilafah)

Humans are appointed as stewards (khalifah) on earth, which carries the responsibility of caring for the environment.

Prophetic Teachings

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) encouraged planting trees, conserving water, and treating animals with kindness. These teachings form the basis of Islamic environmental ethics.
