A US-based organization is making a statement about the connection between the Islamic faith and environmental stewardship. Green Muslims was formed seven years ago, after a group of 20 Muslims gathered in a suburban Washington DC home for a zero-trash potluck iftar meal during Ramadan.
‘We have recognized a trend. Muslims around the world are reverting back to the principles of moderate consumption and stewardship that have been an integral part of Muslim cultural and religious traditions for the past 1,400 years,’ explained Colin Christopher, the executive director.
