A major study of environmentalism and Islam in practice and theory,
with an historical overview that sets out future challenges,
including reformulating the fiqh or Islamic legal tradition to take
the ecological dimension seriously. In addressing this book to the
one billion Muslims in the world it has the potential to
reinvigorate the desire for environmental change in a community
that is ignored at the planets peril. In arguing that modernity,
consumerism and industrialisation need to be rethought, alongside
an appeal to reconnect man and woman with creation in the divine
order, this book has the potential to transform a generation. In
the same way that Naomi Klein's This Changes Everything presented
the argument for environmental action in a Capitalist framework,
Fazlun Khalid has written a book that demands action from those
whose primary orientation is towards the Islamic faith.
