SAFEGUARDING ENVIRONMENT THROUGH RELIGION:A STUDY OF PROPHET MUHAMMAD( PUBH) SUNNAH

Environmental degradation forms one of the main concerns of the humanity world wide. Environment receives high proportion of toxic waste in each possible form- solid , liquid and gaseous each passing day.All this should class upon the attention of human beings to think on the grave issue of environmental pollution. Every year June 5 is celebrated as the world environment day (WED) under the aegis of united nations , intending to raise awareness about the environmental issues within the global society. Seminars , symposiums and conferences were held world-view wide to seek strategies and tools to minimise the harmful effects of environmental pollution. there is no denying of the fact that all such human endeavours bear fruits . However experts at such events failed to invoke the teachings of religious scriptures. As the post modern man still believes in the inviolability of nature, which forms the trust of God in the hands of man, to call upon the religious teachings of environmental preservation and protection will help a lot to build our healthy relationship with environment. In the paper my venture is aimed to explore the the prophetic sunnah of MUHAMMAD PUBH Were in the conservation and care for the environment is deeply cherished. the study could prove & useful to both religious and ir- religious in drawing vital insights and handy conclusion for the preservation of the environment that we all are part of it.
