Eco-Islam movement

The Eco-Islam movement emphasizes that environmental stewardship is a religious duty within Islam. It encourages Muslims to care for the Earth by promoting sustainable practices, conservation, and mindful resource use, grounded in Quranic teachings about humans being vicegerents (trustees) of the planet. Eco-Islam merges ecological awareness with spiritual values, urging followers to protect ecosystems, reduce waste, and live harmoniously with nature as acts of faith. It seeks to address modern environmental challenges by integrating religious principles with ecological responsibility, fostering a sense of moral obligation among Muslims to preserve the environment for future generations.
