Prophet Mohammad, PBUH, commanded his companions not to cut trees or burn forests even during wars for he prevented cutting trees as well as killing women, children, and old people, an attitude that shows the highest level of mercy of treating enemies during wars mercifully and compassionately. He also prevented hurting all kinds of living creatures and that’s why the holy Qur’an confirms the significance of creatures and considers them as nations just like humans; Allah, the almighty says:
“There is not an animal (that lives) on the earth, nor a being that flies on its wings, but (forms
Part of) communities like you. Nothing have we omitted From the Book, and they (all) Shall be gathered to their Lord In the end.” Anam: 6: 38
Such a look at creatures makes man one of them thus he won’t underestimate them, torture them or even mistreat them.
