Exploring the Ethical Implications of Sustainable Practices in Islamic Studies Curriculum

Abstract

This paper examined the ethical implication of integrating sustainable practices into Islamic Studies curricula. As societies face growing environmental challenges, the need to incorporate sustainability into educational frameworks becomes increasingly urgent. This study explored how Islamic teachings enhance ethical practices related to sustainability, ultimately guiding students towards responsible stewardship of the environment. This was done by analysing current curricula approaches and identifying gaps, this paper highlighted the importance of embedding ethical considerations rooted in Islamic values within sustainable practices. It also made suggestions that will foster ethical behavior in Muslim students such as curriculum development, teacher training, interdisciplinary and policy advocacy among others
