পরিবেশ উন্নয়নে ইসলামের নির্দেশনা ও বাংলাদেশের প্রচলিত আইন: একটি পর্যালোচনা|Instructions of Islam for Environmental Development and the Existing Laws of Bangladesh : A Review

Abstract

In the context of global climate change, there is no alternative to environmental development and its preservation for the protection of human lives and their interests. Islam put the highest importance on the environmental development, its conservation, and prevention of environmental disaster. In this article, two important issues have been presented: firstly, an analysis of the importance and relation of sustainable development with the environmental development and its conservation; secondly, a comparative investigation of ‘the dictations of Islam in developing and conserving the environment with ‘the existing laws of Bangladesh’. The primary objective of this article is to present before the readers the policies of Islam and the similarities of existing laws and Islamic laws with respect to the environmental development and its conservation, so that environment related policies of Islam become clear to all and an initiative can be adopted to enact an effective law by incorporating those policies into the existing laws. The article has been prepared in a descriptive and analytical manner. The article makes it clear that by realizing the limitations of our environmental development there are enough scopes to find a way out of the limitations. Thus, if the problems can be identified and be solved effectively, a worthy Bangladesh with the best and sustainable environment can be made possible.
