Truth:
Both traditions teach stewardship of the Earth. In Hinduism, nature is considered sacred - rivers, mountains, trees, and animals are all seen as manifestations of the divine. The concept of "Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam" (the world is one family) emphasizes care for all creation. In Islam, humans are considered "Khalifa" (stewards) of the Earth, responsible for its care. The Quran states: "And it is He who has made you successors upon the earth" (6:165). Both traditions teach: 1) Nature is a gift from God, 2) Humans are caretakers, not owners, 3) Waste and pollution are wrong, 4) Animals should be treated with kindness, 5) Future generations must be considered. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said: "If a Muslim plants a tree, whatever is eaten from it is charity." Both traditions view environmental protection as a religious duty.
