Eco-Friendly Mosque Initiatives: Integrating Multireligious and Multicultural Perspectives for Sustainable Community Spaces

Abstract

This study examines the concept of environmentally friendly mosques by integrating multireligious and multicultural perspectives as the basis for sustainable community development. Through qualitative literature studies, the research examines various academic sources, policy reports, and case studies from Indonesia and other countries to understand the contribution of green mosque initiatives to current social and ecological change. The findings show that the application of renewable energy, water recycling systems, and congregation-based community management effectively reduces environmental impact and raises ecological awareness while also serving as a forum for education. Socially, this movement strengthens community participation, interfaith collaboration, and environmental education. Green mosques function as centers of worship and empowerment that unite spirituality, environmental ethics, and inclusivity
