2. Oneness of God:
Oneness of God or Tawheed
means not ascribing any type
of partnership with Allah.
Tawheed means that Allah is
the Owner and Creator of
everything in universe.
3. Trusteeship:
Allah nominated man as a trustee or khalifah on this planet
“It is He Who made you successor upon the earth” Al-Fatir
This trusteeship came with the responsibility to safeguard the
rights of fellow humans, nature and other inhabitants on earth
Islam teaches man to behave towards nature as a guardian and
recognise his role as a trustee
4. Keeping the Balance:
As a trustee for the nature, Muslim can utilize the nature but also
has to protect it for keeping the balance
“We have produced therein (earth) everything in balance” Al-Hijr
Islam is in the favor of sustainable development.
In Islam it is not permitted for one generation to utilize the wealth
extracted from environment and Allah’s creation at the charge of
next generation.
