| description |
Environmental degradation is a global threat that has a dynamic inter-play
with socio-economic, institutional, and technological activities. Legal efforts
are being made by all nations worldwide jointly and separately, but the
problems are not yet under control. Technological solutions that we name as
environmental friendly technologies, and that are extremely important, do
not address the root causes of underlying political, social and economic factors.
This serious threat has triggered scores of responses from the world religions
to have discourse on developing framework and action plan to resolve this
matter accordingly. As for Islam, it has clear paradigm and instruction on
addressing environmental issues efficiently. Pertaining to this significant, this
paper highlights three essential principles, i.e.the principle of
trusteeship(amanah), justice (‘adl), and public interest (maslahah al-
‘ammah), which are derived from theQur’anic teachings on environmental
wisdom. It is believed that proper education for imparting thesevalues at all
levels can serve as constructive mechanism for abatement and control of
environmental degradation successfully. |
