The Making and Message of Al-Mizan

A Covenant for the Earth

Abstract

Al-Mizan: A Covenant for the Earth presents an Islamic outlook on the environment to strengthen local, regional, and international actions to combat climate change and other threats to the planet. It is a global endeavor to engage Islamic scholars and Muslim institutions in developing and adopting this call. Moreover, it is a restatement of the principles governing the protection of nature in a form that meets current challenges. Here, I aim to summarize the making of Al-Mizan: A Covenant for the Earth.
