<![CDATA[The contemporary ecological crisis is increasingly understood not merely as physical degradation but as a crisis of relation and meaning with measurable psychological consequences. Scholarship on ecological ḥadīṡ has largely remained within juridical-normative or thematic-ethical registers, whereas ecopsychology has developed within a predominantly secular horizon; the two rarely meet. This article proposes and applies an integrative framework, termed Eco-Psycho-Sunnah, which reads the inner objective (al-maqṣid al-nafsī) embedded in classical ḥadīṡ commentary alongside contemporary ecopsychological constructs. Employing a qualitative library-based design and a three-step reading procedure of takhrīj, commentarial reading (qirā’ah sharḥiyyah), and complementary juxtaposition (muqābalah takāmuliyyah), the study analyses six ṣaḥīḥ ecological hadiths across four functional clusters, namely regenerative, conservational, protective, and relational. The results show that classical commentaries, although framed juridically, already encode orientations toward meaning, self-regulation, tranquillity, and compassion that converge with the constructs of meaning in life, self-regulation, restorative experience, and connectedness to nature. The study argues that ecopsychology is not an alien theory imposed upon the Sunnah but a contemporary vocabulary for an inner objective already latent within the commentarial tradition.]]>
