Abstract
Forest is a God gifted natural resources ant its management and
conservation on sustainable basis is considered to bet the prime
responsibility of every nation if they want to conserve their
natural habituates for their future generations .Islam is a
universal religion. It teaches humanity especially its believers, to
lead a moderate life and prohibits extravagancy. Extravagancy
and following wishes and desires results in the unabated loss of
natural resources including forests, which creates several
hazards for wild life as well as human being. Environmental
experts are focusing the concentration of people to these
hazards. About one third of human population comprises
Muslims, who prefer to act upon the teachings of Islam. In this
article we have tried to clarify that planting trees and forests is
means of reward for Muslims in this world as in the hereafter as,
it is termed as Sadaqa Jaria by the Holy prophet, for them.
Cutting of forests unsparingly, is injustice with humanity and
wild life. In this review paper, it has been tried to remind people
for increasing and extending forests and consider it as a
religious duty
