This will also affect the image of Muhammadiyah as an environmentally conscious organization. This study aims to analyze the forms of images related to environmental preservation (hifz al-bi’ah) within the Muhammadiyah. This research is categorized as an analytical-descriptive research, with the selected data collection method being the observational method using the tapping technique. The collected data were analyzed using distributional method with immediate constituent analysis (ICA) technique, and referential method with determinant element sorting (DES) technique.
