Waste disposal into water resources: Ethical evaluation from the Islamic point of view

Recently, the need to protect and sustain the water resources has attracted many researchers’ attention on which every living thing depends on. Consequently, consumption of polluted water puts lives (human, animal, plants) at risk because water has no substitute. Water is a renewable natural resourc...
