<![CDATA[Environmental degradation and climate change increasingly demand the integration of ethical, religious, and ecological perspectives in primary education, particularly in Muslim-majority contexts. This study aims to analyze how ecotheology-based character and values education can be constructed for primary students through a comparative perspective between Indonesia and Egypt. Employing a qualitative comparative case study design, data were collected through participatory action research and field observations in rural Indonesia, as well as document analysis of primary education curricula and related studies in Egypt. The findings reveal that the Indonesian case demonstrates an experiential and community-based model that explicitly integrates the principles of khalifah, amanah, and ihsan into ecological practices, while the Egyptian case reflects a curriculum-driven approach where ecotheological elements remain implicit and largely dependent on teacher interpretation. This study contributes by proposing a three-component model of ecotheology-based character education, comprising value foundations, learning experiences, and community partnerships which offers a flexible framework for integrating religious and environmental education in primary school contexts.]]>
