Abstract

This study explores Islamic eco-theology as a lived religious experience shaped through women’s leadership in Pesantren Ekologi Ath-Thaariq, Indonesia. In the context of escalating global ecological crises, religious institutions increasingly integrate environmental ethics into everyday religious practices. This research focuses on how women religious leaders construct, articulate, and legitimize eco-theological values within the pesantren community. Employing a qualitative approach, the study uses a case study method based on in-depth interviews and qualitative analysis of digital documents and the pesantren’s official website. The findings indicate that Islamic eco-theology in Pesantren Ekologi Ath-Thaariq is expressed not merely as theological discourse but as lived religious practice manifested through narratives of ecological care, sustainable farming, and moral education. Women’s leadership plays a central role in connecting ecological awareness with Islamic ethical commitments and communal responsibility. This study concludes that women’s religious leadership significantly contributes to the social construction of Islamic eco-theology, positioning pesantren as an important site for ethical and ecological engagement in contemporary Muslim society
