“…While religious belief can be a powerful influence on the behaviour of individuals, groups, and society as a whole (Hope and Jones, 2014), a relatively new line of ER literature has emerged, revealing a move towards the three monotheistic religions (i.e. Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) and their impact upon behaviours and actions of individuals/groups for the welfare of society and environment (e.g.…”

Yet, there is still a lack of empirical evidence on the following: the extent to which ER ethics are promoted within divine textual messages, types of environmental themes contained within such holy texts, and implications of these ethics for business practices.…”

Objective: This study aimed to investigate Islamic Self-care in Iranian medical students. Methods: In this descriptive study that was done in 2015, students of the Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences (faculties of health, paramedical, pharmacy, medicine and dentistry) were selected through classified random sampling. Study sample was calculated 269 from 900 students based on Krejcie and Morgan's table. Data gathering was done using demographic and a standardized questionnaire about Islamic Self-care. Results: In this study, 269 students were entered to study. The mean (SD) score of Stipulation, Meditation, Calculation and Expostulation of students were 9.82 (2.35), 10.04 (2.85), 8.74 (2.65) and 7.64 (2.48) respectively. Results shows that correlation between all the components of the Self-care are positive and significant (p < .001). Conclusions: It is worthy that further study will be aimed to investigate ways to strengthen it, as well as explaining the benefits of Islamic Self-care among students with the theoretical and practical examples.

“…The second most frequently articulated value was stewardship and creation care. A range of similar studies have found stewardship to be a prevalent value within REMOs (Wardekker et al., ), which, like justice, is not exclusive to Christian activist identity but can also be found in other religious discourses (Chaplin, ; Danielsen, ; Hope & Jones, ). We found that stewardship was a metaphor for human responsibility and was closely related to the theological particularities of Christian identity.…”

This qualitative study draws on in‐depth interviews and documentary analysis conducted between 2014 and 2016 to investigate the nature of pro‐environmental behaviour of members within the Eco‐Congregation Scotland network. We argue for an integrative analytical frame, that we call “eco‐theo‐citizenship,” which synthesises strengths of values‐, practice‐ and citizenship‐based approaches to the study of pro‐environmental behaviour within the specific context of religious environmental groups. This study finds the Eco‐Congregation groups studied are not primarily issue driven, and instead have an emphasis on “community‐building” activities and a concept of environmental citizenship which spans multiple political scales from local to international. Primary values emphasised included “environmental justice” and “stewardship.” Analysis of the data indicated that groups in this network are distinctive in two particular ways: (1) group focus on mobilising values and environmental concern towards “community building” can produce what looks like a more conservative approach to climate change mobilisation, preserving and working slowly within institutional structures, with a primary focus not on climate change mitigation per se but on the consolidation and development of the community and broader network; and (2) these groups can often under‐report their accomplishments and the footprint of their work on the basis of a common religious conviction which we have termed a “culture of modesty.”
