Abstract
Islam safeguards and protects all aspects of human’s life and guides Muslims with proper etiquette of dealing with their surroundings and environment. It also urges individuals to preserve the natural resources for their needs as well as well as the needs of future generations. With this regard, Islamic legislations does not limit these virtuous actions as recommended ruling, but these rulings vary between obligatory, prohibitionary, recommended, and reprehensible, which indicate Islam special care on the environment protection matter. The research, therefore, reviews the shariah's perspective on environmental issues and attempt to relate them to Islamic jurisprudence rulings through induction methodology, especially those matters related to what is known today as “sustainable environment”. This will show and prove the precedence of Islam in environment protection related matters, which has layed the foundations of today’s sustainable development agenda. The study also adopts the Maqasid approach in addressing environmental issues, since the preservation of environment and its sustainability has been emphasized by Sharia, and negligence in return threatens environment sustainability or at least depletes its resources. |
