Abstract

Global environmental challenges require active engagement from all sectors, including education. For Muslim youth, awareness of environmental sustainability aligns with Islamic ethical principles such as stewardship (khalifah), justice (ʿadl), and social welfare (maslahah). This study examines the influence of green economy education within Islamic higher education on students’ eco-literacy, ethical awareness, and sustainable economic behavior. A quantitative approach was employed using a structured questionnaire distributed to students from both Islamic economics and non-economics programs. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, and one-way ANOVA to identify differences in environmental knowledge, attitudes, and behavior. Findings show that students with an Islamic economics background consistently achieve higher scores in knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral engagement related to sustainability compared to non-Islamic economics students. Integrating Islamic ethical values into the curriculum provides a holistic framework for internalizing sustainability principles, encouraging students to translate ethical knowledge into practical action. Pedagogical strategies such as project-based learning, reflective exercises, and experiential programs further enhance engagement and eco-conscious behavior. The study highlights the critical role of Islamic education in fostering a generation of ethically aware and environmentally responsible students. By embedding moral and ecological principles in academic programs, educational institutions can strengthen students’ capacity for sustainable decision-making and support broader goals of responsible economic and environmental stewardship.

Abstract

This study explores Islamic legal perspectives on climate justice by integrating environmental ethics with economic responsibility within the wider framework of Sharia. Using a qualitative library research approach, it examines classical sources such as the Qur’an, Hadith, and uṣūl al-fiqh, alongside contemporary works on Islamic environmental ethics, sustainable development, and climate governance. The findings show that Islamic principles—including khalifah (stewardship), mīzān (balance), ‘adl (justice), and maslahah (public interest)—provide a strong ethical foundation for addressing climate change and preventing environmental corruption (fasād). The Maqāṣid al-Sharī‘ah, particularly the preservation of life, property, lineage, and the environment, support environmentally conscious policies and sustainable economic practices. Islamic finance instruments such as green sukuk and ESG-aligned investments further promote ecological responsibility. Overall, Islamic legal and economic traditions offer a comprehensive framework that links environmental sustainability with socio-economic equity, positioning Islamic thought as an important contributor to global climate justice discourse.

Abstract

This community-based program aims to strengthen the economic resilience of marginalized groups in Pakistan through a social entrepreneurship model that promotes inclusion, innovation, and long-term sustainable growth. The initiative responds to persistent socio-economic inequalities that limit opportunities for low-income populations, particularly women, youth, and rural communities. By integrating entrepreneurial training, financial literacy education, and community-based business incubation, the program equips participants with the skills needed to initiate and sustain micro-enterprises. The model emphasizes the use of local resources, socially responsible business practices, and community-led decision-making to ensure contextual relevance. Data collected through baseline assessments, participatory workshops, and post-program evaluations show significant improvement in participants’ entrepreneurial competencies, confidence, and engagement in local economic activities. Government officials, NGOs, and private-sector partners reported increased trust and willingness to collaborate with trained communities. Feedback from participants highlights enhanced motivation, improved financial knowledge, and stronger social networks. Overall, the program demonstrates that social entrepreneurship can be a powerful mechanism for inclusive economic development when combined with capacity building, community mobilization, and strategic partnerships. Findings offer insights for policymakers and academic researchers seeking scalable models to address marginalization and promote sustainable growth in Pakistan’s diverse socio-economic landscape.
