Abstract

The Islamic Energy Garden (IEG) merges Islamic values with sustainable practices based on Maqasid Shariah principles to create eco-friendly, spiritually enriching campus environments. This study addresses the gap in research regarding the application of energy solutions within Islamic gardens aligned with Maqasid Shariah. It aims to identify and categorise Islamic garden and green energy elements as essentials (Daruriyat), complements (Hajiyat), and embellishments (Tahsiniyat). Through thematic tafseer and scoping review analyses, the study explores the characteristics of Islamic gardens and sustainable design, contributing to policy-making and guiding inclusive campus designs in Malaysia.
