Many of us at IIUM were fortunate to learn about environmental issues from different religious perspectives. As members of the teaching staff at an Islamic university, we often address the subject of man and nature primarily from an Islamic viewpoint. Listening to people of other faiths discuss what their religious texts say about the proper attitude humans should have towards the environment was thrilling. The two-hour session enriched us in many ways.
