Environmental Management of the Islamic Perspective

Abstract

Environmental problems are currently inevitable. The problems are amplified by low level of public awareness about environment and the ever-increasing level of environmental damage done by irresponsible people. Education plays an important role in changing people's paradigms about environment. People need to be made aware of the importance of their environment. In this regard, madrasa can be an ideal means to raise public awareness of the importance of environmental preservation and management. This research was carried out using a descriptive naturalistic method. Data were collected by means of interview, questionnaire, and observations. The research found that there were many ways implemented in madrasa to instill environmental awareness so as to realize the environmentally-sound madrasa.
