Keywords:

The global environmental crisis caused by the exploitation of natural resources and the imbalance of the conventional economic system has prompted the emergence of the concept of a green economy as an alternative to sustainable development. In the Islamic context, the principles of Islamic economics inherently embody sustainability values that emphasize justice, balance (tawazun), and social responsibility towards nature. This article aims to conceptually examine the integration of green economic principles with Islamic economic values and to identify the similarities between the two paradigms in achieving maslahah ammah (public welfare) and sustainable prosperity. This research uses a literature study approach by analyzing various scientific sources from journals, books, and relevant policy documents from the past ten years. The results of the study indicate that the integration of a green economy with Islamic economics is not only possible but also a moral and theological necessity. Both share the same vision: creating equitable social welfare without damaging the environmental order. The principle of maqasid al-shariah, the prohibition of israf (waste), and the concept of khalifah fi al-ardh serve as the normative basis that strengthens the implementation of a green economy within an Islamic economic framework. Thus, a green economy based on sharia values can become an alternative economic model that is sustainable and equitable.
