Abstract

This study explores the application of eco-hermeneutics, an interdisciplinary approach combining ecological thought and scriptural interpretation, to sacred texts such as the Bible, Quran, and Vedas. Eco-hermeneutics seeks to reinterpret traditional religious teachings to emphasize ecological responsibility, interconnectedness, and the moral obligation of humans to protect the environment. The analysis identifies key ecological themes within sacred scriptures, including creation care, stewardship, and the intrinsic value of nature. Interviews with theologians and environmental ethicists provide practical insights into how eco-hermeneutical interpretations can be applied in contemporary religious contexts, offering a fresh perspective on environmental ethics rooted in religious teachings. This approach challenges anthropocentric views, which have historically positioned humans as dominators of nature, and instead advocates for an ecocentric understanding of the environment. The findings highlight the potential of eco-hermeneutics to inspire faith-based responses to the ecological crises, urging religious communities to adopt these interpretations to foster environmental stewardship. However, challenges and resistance from traditional religious communities are identified, particularly concerning entrenched views on human supremacy over nature. The study also explores the implications of eco-hermeneutics for religious education, suggesting that its integration into religious curricula could promote a theology of care and responsibility toward the environment. The paper concludes by calling for further research on the practical applications of eco-hermeneutics, particularly in how these teachings can be incorporated into religious practices and community actions, contributing to global sustainability efforts.

Abstract

This study explores the role of faith-based environmental programs in fostering youth engagement in biodiversity protection. As global biodiversity continues to decline, there is an increasing recognition of the importance of engaging young people in conservation efforts. Faith-based organizations (FBOs) have the potential to play a significant role in this effort, leveraging religious teachings and values to inspire environmental stewardship. The study uses a mixed-methods approach, including surveys, focus group discussions, and case studies, to examine how faith-based programs influence youth involvement in activities such as community gardens, reforestation efforts, and species protection projects. The findings suggest that faith-based programs are effective in nurturing long-term engagement in biodiversity protection by instilling values of responsibility and stewardship. Spiritual motivations, community support, and educational mentorship emerge as key factors contributing to sustained youth participation in conservation initiatives. However, challenges such as limited resources, generational differences in ecological engagement, and the integration of doctrinal teachings with scientific conservation practices are identified. The study concludes that faith-based environmental programs can expand their impact by integrating environmental education into their existing frameworks, fostering partnerships with environmental organizations, and creating inclusive platforms for all youth groups. Further research is needed to explore the long-term impact of faith-based programs on youth engagement and biodiversity protection, and to identify strategies for optimizing these programs for greater effectiveness.

Abstract

This study explores the role of interreligious environmental ethics in shaping global cooperation to address the ongoing ecological crisis. By analyzing and comparing the teachings of Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism, the study identifies key environmental ethics principles that are shared across these religious traditions, such as non-violence, the sacredness of nature, and the principle of moderation in resource use. Despite theological and doctrinal differences, these shared values provide a strong philosophical and moral foundation for fostering cooperation among religious communities in addressing global environmental challenges. The study also examines the philosophical divergences within religious teachings, such as the varying interpretations of human dominion over nature and the role of humans as stewards or caretakers of the Earth. These theological differences present challenges in creating a unified environmental ethical framework, yet they also highlight the richness and diversity of religious perspectives on ecological responsibility. The practical applications of these teachings are discussed, focusing on how religious values have been integrated into real-world environmental movements, such as faith-based environmentalism and interfaith collaborations. The findings underscore the potential for interfaith dialogue to catalyze global environmental action and the creation of a unified global ethical system. Such a system, grounded in shared religious values, could provide a framework for sustainable practices and ecological justice, offering a moral guide for individuals, communities, and nations in their efforts to mitigate environmental degradation and promote sustainability.

Abstract

This study proposes an integrative framework for climate justice that combines moral theology, ethical philosophy, and religious pedagogy to encourage active participation in eco-ethical actions. The framework addresses the growing need for religious communities to engage in environmental stewardship by merging traditional religious teachings with contemporary environmental ethics. The research emphasizes the importance of eco-ethical education within religious settings, which fosters a deep sense of moral responsibility toward environmental care. Data for the study was gathered through field observations and interviews with religious educators and environmental activists, aiming to understand current educational practices and to explore opportunities for integrating climate justice into religious curricula. The study found that, while there are challenges such as curriculum limitations, ideological resistance, and insufficient understanding of climate justice, the proposed framework offers a powerful tool for religious institutions to foster environmentally responsible and ethically committed individuals. It also highlights the potential for collaboration between religious organizations and environmental groups to further promote climate justice. The study concludes that religious education has a unique role in shaping individuals' attitudes towards environmental issues, offering a distinct advantage over secular approaches by embedding moral responsibility into faith-based practices. Further research is recommended to explore the integration of climate justice in religious education and its impact on community behavior and sustainability.

Abstract

One of the skills in facing global challenges in the application of 21st century skills is critical thinking skills in solving problems with a scientific attitude (Eka et al., 2020) critical thinking skills enable them to be able to face complex situations and make wise decisions. The application of case-based learning can be a learning solution including in learning with limited meetings in class because it is oriented towards developing critical thinking skills in solving cases. This study uses a descriptive-analytical library research method, where data is collected from various library sources such as books, journals, and scientific articles. This research is a qualitative descriptive type that relies on analysis to determine, interpret, and clarify the data or information collected. This method aims to obtain an overview of the Case Method Learning Design on Halal Haram Material in the Al-Qur'an Hadith Subject of Class XII Madrasah Aliyah at Dayah Modern Ihyaaussunnah Lhokseumawe. This study successfully designed a case-based learning method as an innovative approach in teaching the Qur'an and Hadith on the topic of Halal and Haram in grade XII of Madrasah Aliyah. However, the implementation of this method also faces challenges such as the need for teacher readiness in designing and moderating cases, limited class time, and variations in students' abilities in analyzing cases

Abstract

The growing environmental crisis underscores the need for education systems to foster ecological responsibility among students. This study explores the potential for multifaith schools to cultivate environmental moral education through an interreligious pedagogical model. By integrating diverse religious teachings on ecology, the proposed model aims to promote shared moral values for environmental protection and sustainability. The research addresses the gap in existing environmental education, which often lacks an integrated approach that incorporates various religious perspectives. Through a qualitative research design, the study analyzes curricula, observes classroom practices, conducts interviews with educators, and evaluates existing environmental education frameworks in multifaith schools. The study identifies key strategies, including the incorporation of eco-ethics from different religious traditions, project-based learning, and interfaith dialogues, as effective means of fostering ecological responsibility. However, challenges such as balancing doctrinal differences, overcoming biases, and developing inclusive pedagogy remain. The study emphasizes the importance of designing educational content that respects all faiths and promotes intercultural dialogue, thereby encouraging a collective commitment to sustainability. The findings suggest that multifaith schools can serve as powerful platforms for environmental moral education, highlighting the value of integrating religious perspectives into sustainability education. The study concludes with recommendations for incorporating interreligious eco-ethics into curricula and teacher training programs and suggests future research on the long-term impact of interreligious environmental education and its applicability in diverse cultural contexts.

Abstract

As environmental challenges continue to intensify globally, there is an increasing need for educational systems to foster ecological awareness and sustainable living practices. This paper explores the integration of ecospirituality within religious education, combining deep ecology and faith-based pedagogy to promote environmental consciousness among students. Ecospirituality, a concept that merges ecological awareness with spiritual beliefs, provides a holistic framework that not only encourages ecological stewardship but also aligns these practices with religious values. The paper examines key principles of deep ecology, such as the interconnectedness of all life, biospherical egalitarianism, and anti-consumerism, and explores their application in educational contexts. It also delves into how religious education has historically approached environmental issues, particularly through faith-based pedagogies that emphasize moral responsibility for creation. Using a qualitative research approach, the study conducts content analysis of religious curricula, interviews with educators, and textual examination of religious literature to uncover ecological principles within religious teachings. The findings suggest that the integration of ecological themes into religious education enhances students' understanding of environmental ethics and strengthens their connection to nature. Despite challenges such as resistance to curriculum changes, variations in theological interpretations, and the need for teacher training, the study highlights innovative solutions, including professional development and curriculum adaptation. The comparison with secular environmental education models shows that ecospirituality offers a unique approach by embedding sustainability within spiritual practices. The paper concludes by recommending further research and curriculum development to ensure that ecospirituality can play a central role in shaping a sustainable future through education.

Abstract

This study explores the intersection of sacred water rituals and ecological awareness, examining how religious practices related to water shape environmental virtues and promote water conservation efforts. Various religious traditions, including Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, and indigenous practices, treat water as a sacred resource, emphasizing its purity, sanctity, and the responsibility of humans to protect it. These rituals, such as Islamic ablution (wudhu), Christian baptism, and Hindu purification rites, not only serve spiritual purposes but also embody environmental ethics that encourage restraint, humility, and stewardship in the use of water. The study employs a comparative qualitative approach, integrating textual exegesis, ethnographic observations, and interviews with religious practitioners to analyze how different faith traditions frame water as sacred and how these frameworks translate into practical behaviors regarding water conservation. The findings reveal that religious water rituals contribute to an ecological self, fostering a deep respect for nature and a commitment to sustainable water use. However, challenges exist in reconciling traditional practices with modern water scarcity issues, especially in regions where water conservation is a critical concern. Despite these challenges, religious communities have the potential to leverage their ritual heritage to foster global awareness and action toward water conservation. Future research should explore interfaith collaborations in water conservation and investigate the impact of ritual practices on real-world water conservation behaviors. This study highlights the potential of sacred water rituals as powerful tools for promoting environmental stewardship and addressing global water challenges.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of indigenous spiritual knowledge into modern environmental ethics, focusing on the role of traditional ecological wisdom, spiritual cosmology, and stewardship practices in promoting sustainability. Indigenous worldviews often emphasize the interconnectedness between humans, the spirit world, and nature, viewing these relationships as sacred and reciprocal. This paper highlights the philosophical contributions of indigenous environmental ethics, which contrast with Western anthropocentric frameworks, offering a more holistic, spiritual, and culturally embedded perspective on ecological stewardship. Through a qualitative comparative approach, the study examines indigenous practices such as those found in the Anishinaabe philosophy of mino-mnaamodzawin and the Sarnaism faith of the Oraon community, demonstrating how spiritual connections to nature foster a deep sense of responsibility and environmental ethics. Additionally, the study discusses the challenges of integrating indigenous spiritual principles into Western academic and policy frameworks, including issues of cultural appropriation and the preservation of traditional knowledge. The research further explores potential strategies for collaboration, emphasizing community-driven approaches that respect and incorporate indigenous knowledge into global environmental governance. This integration can lead to more inclusive and sustainable environmental practices that honor both ecological balance and cultural heritage. The findings suggest that indigenous spiritual knowledge offers essential insights into creating a more sustainable and ethical approach to environmental challenges, providing a model for future policy development and global ecological strategies.
