In environmental wisdom, it manifests in modest practice, revealing the many ways humans and their environment interact. In Islam, we learn environmental wisdom through the leadership of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The good news is there are learning benefits in environmental wisdom that can be brought into our environmental education programmes. Environmental sustainability is more likely to be relevant when the modern and developed world domesticates local wisdom, local knowledge, local experiences and religious teachings. The narrower the gap between environmental wisdom and environmental education, the more effective the environmental and social outcomes would be.
