Environmental ethics in Islam: a fiqh muasarah approach to sustainable practices / Nik Aleya Natasha Rosday … [et al.]

Islam holds that both the physical and incorporeal needs of humanity are met by nature. According to the Quran, people are made to serve their creator, who genuinely wants the best for everyone-including themselves, their community, and the entire world. The foundation of Islamic environmental ethics includes this point of view. This review aims to provide an overview of environmental ethics from an Islamic perspective, with a focus on sustainable development and its foundational principles This involves describing what ethics and the environment imply in Islam and providing guidance on how to appropriately engage with and care for nature. Additionally, it is also to understand the interactions between people and the natural world as well as the problems arising from how people treat the environment. In the present study, we collected information on sustainability and responsible consumption of natural resources from a few chapters of the Al-Quran and Hadiths (sayings of the Prophet PBUH). Additionally, literature was retrieved from additional databases and Google Scholar. The research problem in this review is have to do with careless human ethics that harm the environment by contaminating water, soil, sound, and other natural resources. In summary, all living things, especially humans, need to emphasise the sustainability of nature because humans depend on it for their continued existence based on the Islamic principles, and they also need to practise the correct Islamic ethics.
