the future of humanity. Environmental problems today are no longer seen merely as disturbances in the natural system, but as the result of the way humans think and perceive the world. This research seeks to examine the environmental question through two competing perspectives that struggle over space and domination in today’s world. The first is a spiritual and religious vision, grounded in the idea of humanity’s ultimate purposes, viewing the human being as a bearer of a mission and a witness to civilization, within a framework consistent with the comprehensive nature of religion and its purposive objectives. In contrast, the research highlights the features of environmental secularism, which has accompanied a materialist view of the human being and existence. This perspective is centered on the self and considers the human being as solely responsible for their condition and their humanity. It aspires to offer a vision that takes into account the broader dimensions of religion, leading to solutions that address environmental problems resulting from ongoing violations of nature amid the growing spread of materialist tendencies based on consumer culture. This culture has not only violated the environment but also undermined human dignity, confining the human being to a purely consumptive dimension.
