Week IV

Topics of the week:

  • environmental activities: hobbies, community activities and spiritual activities.
  • major environmental problems.
  • crowded Jordan.
  • what does eco-friendly mean in Islamic spirituality and eco-life?
  • Islamic message and protection of the environment.


Goals for the week :

  • to realize that the countries of the Middle East, North Africa and the Arab world have very serious environmental problems that are getting worse.
  • understand that if there is a problem in our neighborhood (Middle East, North Africa and Arabia) and if the neighbors fail to solve the problem, it will soon be in our yard and our problem (eg refugee crises, including climate refugees).
  • understand that a society based on religious principles and traditions can also successfully use these traditional ideas to promote environmental protection.
  • get to know different campaigns related to religion (customs and traditions) and environmentally friendly thinking.
