Abstract

This present research was conducted in the locations in which the figures of Islam, the doers of the natural resources and environmental conservation, have received some awards at the local, national and international levels, in 2015 and 2016. A phenomenological qualitative approach with an emphasis on the events and symptoms the researcher interpreted was employed. The results of this research showed that the behaviors of the prominent figures of Islam in the natural resources and environmental conservation were heavily influenced by the knowledge and the values they possessed. The knowledge was gained from long and intensive training activities with various methods and approaches. The figures of Islam, the doers of the natural resources and environmental conservation, had more advanced thoughts than those who did not do activities of conservation and who merely focused on their worshiping activities in a narrow sense. Their patterns of acquiring the knowledge and values are expected to be able to be applied in the locations in which they or other ummahs of Islam live. This could lead the ummah of Islam will have a better awareness of and show real behaviors in maintaining the natural resources and the environment in accordance with the teachings of Islam, namely human beings as the God’s caliphs.
