An Invitation to Shared Amanah
Seeking Land for an Islamic Eco-Village Cooperative (Foundational Phase)
We are in the early, foundational phase of forming an Islamic Eco-Village Cooperative—a community initiative rooted in faith, stewardship of the Earth, ethical livelihoods, and mutual care.
At this stage:
- we do not yet own or control land
- we are building community, governance, and clarity of intention
- we are exploring land partnerships aligned with Islamic ethics and long-term benefit
We reach out with humility to explore trust-based land stewardship, not commercial development.
Our Intention With Land
In the Islamic worldview, land is not merely property—it is an amanah (trust) from Allah.
Our intention, if Allah permits, is to steward land for:
- worship and remembrance
- holistic Islamic education and natural living
- food security and ecological care
- dignified community life, including benefit for underserved groups
- long-term impact (ṣadaqah jāriyah)
“The Earth belongs to Allah; He grants it to whom He wills of His servants.”
(Qur’an 7:128)
Type of Land We Are Seeking
We are seeking land suitable for small-scale, low-impact, community-based living.
Preferred characteristics:- Located in Indonesia (rural or semi-rural areas)
- Suitable for simple dwellings, small farms, prayer and learning spaces
- Agricultural, forested, or mixed land welcomed
- Intended for long-term stewardship, not resale or speculation
We value land that respects local communities, adat, and environmental balance.
Stewardship Models We Are Open To
We are flexible in structure, firm in ethics. We are open to exploring:
- Wakaf (perpetual charitable endowment)
- Long-term use or lease arrangements
- Stewardship partnerships based on shared responsibility
- Ethical transfer or sale, only where aligned with non-speculative intent
All arrangements are approached:
- transparently and legally
- through consultation (shūrā)
- with respect for local regulations and norms
Who We Hope to Hear From
We welcome conversations with:
- landowners with unused or under-utilised land
- families or elders seeking meaningful legacy
- Islamic foundations, wakaf bodies, or pesantren networks
- individuals who view land as service rather than leverage
What We Are Not Seeking
For clarity and respect:
- we are not property developers
- we are not a commercial real-estate venture
- we are not seeking land for profit-driven projects
- we are not rushing decisions
“Indeed, Allah loves those who act with justice.”
(Qur’an 49:9)
Our Commitment as Stewards
If Allah opens a path to land, we commit to:
- ethical and transparent governance
- cooperative, non-exploitative land use
- environmental care and regeneration
- accountability to partners and community
- alignment with Islamic principles in spirit and practice
