Abstract

Purpose - This study aims to analyze the social status of Arab women during the Jahiliyyah period, within the context of the patriarchal social system that dominated Arab society at that time, and to evaluate how these conditions influenced the development of contemporary Islamic family law, particularly in terms of fulfilling women's rights. Methods - The research method used was a literature study with a historical approach. The primary data in this study consisted of verses from the Qur'an, while the secondary data included scientific references related to the research theme. Data were collected using documentation techniques and analyzed using content analysis techniques. Findings - The status of women in pre-Islamic Arabia was very marginalized, and they did not have proper legal status (in terms of inheritance, marriage, and social status). The arrival of Islam brought significant changes that improved the status of women by granting them basic rights. Reform efforts undertaken by Muslim countries, such as restrictions on polygamy, child custody rights, and fairer inheritance rules, are manifestations of the spirit of the Qur'an in creating justice and protecting women's rights. Research implications - Practically, the findings can be used as a basis for normative reflection for family law legislation with a gender justice perspective in contemporary Muslim societies. Originality/value - The originality of this research lies in its critical approach to the dominant narrative about pre-Islamic Arab women and its contextual connection to the development of Islamic family law.

Abstract

Environmental degradation and waste accumulation represent critical challenges that extend beyond technical or policy failures, reflecting deeper ethical and moral crises in human–nature relations. This study examines how Qur’anic caliphate (khalīfah) values can be operationalized through zero waste practices, bridging normative Islamic ethics and contemporary environmental action. Using a qualitative normative–textual approach within an ecological tafsīr framework, Qur’anic verses on stewardship, balance (mīzān), moral trust (amānah), and prohibitions against excess (isrāf) and environmental destruction (fasād) were thematically analyzed alongside classical and contemporary exegeses. The findings reveal that zero waste embodies a practical manifestation of Qur’anic ethics, translating khalīfah, mīzān, and amānah into actionable environmental behaviors, including consumption reduction, waste prevention, reuse, recycling, and organic waste management. This operational mapping demonstrates that ecological responsibility is an inherent dimension of Islamic ethical teachings, offering a systematic framework for implementing value-based sustainability practices. The study contributes theoretically by advancing ecological tafsīr from conceptual ethics toward practice-oriented application and highlights the potential of religious principles to transform environmental behavior in contemporary Muslim contexts. Future research should investigate the empirical effectiveness of zero waste practices grounded in Qur’anic ethics and explore comparative eco-theological applications across communities.
