Abstract: This study explores the integration of interdisciplinary approaches to Islamic education in fostering environmental awareness among Muslim communities. Recognizing the escalating environmental crises, this research underscores the importance of combining traditional Islamic teachings with contemporary environmental science, ethics, and education methodologies. By examining the Qur'anic principles that emphasize stewardship and the ethical responsibilities toward the earth, the paper aims to highlight the potential of Islamic education to cultivate a sense of environmental responsibility. It employs qualitative methods, including literature reviews and case studies of successful programs that blend Islamic teachings with ecological practices. The findings indicate that such interdisciplinary approaches not only enhance students' understanding of environmental issues but also encourage active participation in sustainability initiatives within their communities. Ultimately, the study advocates for a holistic educational framework that harmonizes religious beliefs with environmental consciousness, aiming to empower individuals to become effective stewards of the planet.
