As part of the Ummah for Earth Alliance (U4E), in partnership with Global One, have developed a Green Guide and Application to the Hajj and Umrah that demonstrate the teachings of Islam related to the conservation of the environment.
The Guide and App focus on Hajj and Umrah, and present recommendations for communities, governments, and institutions to enable the observance of a more environmentally responsible pilgrimage. The Guide will be re-launched during the event 10 years after the publication of the original guide in Assisi, Itlay under the auspices of ARC, Alliance of Religion and Conservation.
The Guide and App seek to inspire greater advocacy to care for the environment:
On this day of Arafah, which is very special to 1.8 billion Muslims, we need to remember that we are stewards and have a duty to protect and preserve our beautiful planet. I hope and pray this guide will enable a better understanding of our role as global citizens to pave the way for a greener more sustainable planet.
Dr. Husna Ahmad, CEO Global One
