Abstract

Environmental crises resulted from economic development has become global concerns, including Indonesia, as Muslim majority country even though Islam encourages societies to take advantages maximally from their environment in the good ways and modesty. Meanwhile, Jamaah Tani Muhammadiyah experienced economic crises resulted from climate change, limited market access, poor land quality and water source. This social and normative research was conducted to find out how the Muslim peasant dealt with the problems, the advantages from their problem solving and to validate maslaha (public good) in the environmental economic practice of peasant economic development by interviews and observations. The results showed that there are three ways of taking advantages from land and water sources for their economic development. First, they revitalized the quality and quantity of the rice fields through organic rice cultivations. Second, they limited water exploitation to one of seven water sources to protect the quality and the quantity of mineral water. Third, they organized the plantation periods and applied updated technology to maximize harvest and stabilize rice reserve. Therefore, based on the advantages of those three methods it was concluded as maslaha mursala based on maslaha qualifications and from classification, application and theological reasons.
