Ecosystem Services, Global Environmental Change, and Local Actions that can help
As Muslims, we believe that Allah’s rahma (Mercy) and His blessings have no limits. We live on a planet that contains all the resources that humans need for survival: water, food, materials for buildings and machinery such as wood, metal and rubber. The Quran provides illustrations of the relationships between water, plants, animals and humans (Ahmad 2010). Allah SWT says:
“Have they not seen how We drive water to the dry land that has no vegetation, and therewith bring forth crops providing food for their cattle and themselves? Will they not then see?” (As-Sajdah 32:27).
