Natural resources are fundamental assets for supporting human life and ecosystem sustainability. However, irresponsible exploitation has led to environmental degradation, resource scarcity, and climate change, necessitating ethical and sustainable management frameworks. This study aims to analyze the alignment between global ethical frameworks—including the IUCN Natural Resource Governance Framework (NRGF), Environmental Management System (EMS), The Earth Charter, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG), and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)—and Islamic principles in sustainable natural resource management. Using a descriptive-comparative qualitative approach, this research conducts a thematic analysis of primary Islamic sources (Qur’an and Hadith) and global framework documents. Data were analyzed to identify conceptual correlations and integrative potential between the two systems. The study reveals significant alignment between global ethical frameworks and Islamic principles, particularly in concepts of sustainability, justice (Al-’Adl), balance (Mizan), and prohibition of waste (Israf). Key Islamic principles such as trusteeship (khalifah) and accountability before God resonate strongly with global sustainability goals. The research also proposes an Islamic Pentahelix collaboration model involving government, academia, business, community, and media to implement these integrated principles. Islamic teachings offer a comprehensive ethical foundation that aligns with and can enrich global sustainability efforts. The integration of these principles through collaborative models like the Islamic Pentahelix can enhance the effectiveness and moral grounding of natural resource management policies worldwide.
