The Consciousness of Environment in the Context of Hadith: “Faith is Seventy odd Classes. And Its Uppermost Class is the Word ‘There is no God but Allah’. The Lowermost one is to Remove a Thing from the Way that Disturb People

In modern times, the understanding of production and consume that spreads over the world globally brings about environmental disasters. Islamic civilization has paid serious care to environment from the beginning. And It considers the environment as not only for human being but also for all the other creatures. The clean and healthy environment is the prior condition for Islamic thought and Human life. In this presentation we try to analyze the hadith of Prophet Mohammad (a.s) in the context of environment issues: “Faith is seventy odd classes. And its uppermost class is the word ‘there is no god but Allah’. The lowermost one is to remove a thing from the way that disturbs people. Although Islamic culture and civilization is tremendously sensitive to environment in its basic sources, today it is very hard to say that Islamic world is so sensitive to environment issues. As it is related to faith, then it is necessary to survey the historical Islamic experience regarding this issue and convey it to date. In this presentation, it is evaluated the approach of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) to environment in the context of hadith above.
