Abstract
Islam is a harmonious religion that preserves universal significances in all aspects of human life. Islamic law (Shariah) that is based on
two major sources namely, the Holy Quran and the prophetic traditions (Sunnah) aims to preserve maṣ laḥ ah (goodness) and avoid the
muḍ arrah (harm). In order to achieve the true meaning of Islam, a comprehensive understanding on any contemporary issues needs to
cover all aspects of life and must be perceived from Islamic weltanschauung. This study uses inductive, deductive and comparative
methods. The issues of pollution and natural disasters resulted from human actions and errors provide an indication the need to
understand the obligations of preserving nature in the paradigm of maqasid al-shariah (objectives of Islamic law). This study has found
that ḍarūrah kulliyah (universal essential or necessity) in the context of maqasid al-daruriyyah (objectives of essentials) as an important
indicator for awareness of environmental preservation.
Keywords: Maqasid Daruriyyah (Objectives of Essentials), Al-Kulliyah (Universal), Nature Preservation.
