Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Environmental Protection in Islamic Shari’ah How to Protect the Human Environment? Protecting the natural and social environment are among the most important Islamic goals of existence, and explaining the sign of its care and concern with human welfare and natural protection, as well as its adherence to the life system, the man’s well-being and his continuous existence.

This is because the well-being of human species and the living and nonliving things around him, like earth, water and air depends on its protection from pollution and destruction. Islam has chosen some steps for protecting health and the environment. Some of which are as follows: Enlightening and educating man on how to take care of health and nature, as well as protecting the living creatures on this earth.

And this is based on the principle that whatever the Almighty Lord creates is perfect, accurate and is meant for reformation, and there is nothing created in vain and for amusement. Surely, the Qur’an has elaborated on this point, when it says: “…the handiwork of Allah Who has made everything in perfect order…” Holy Qur’an (Naml 27:88) However, when man becomes egoistic and aggressive, these acts will influence him to destroy the environment and pollute the natural surroundings.
