<p>There are striking interconnections between the dominations of all kinds with linking attitudes and consequences. Whether it is a matter of religion, gender, race, ethnicity, class, or even species, everything is interconnected. Globally, the most disadvantaged populations are marginalized. Since religion is a meaningful way whereby the roles of the present and future generations are defined and imposed, this article offers an investigation and analysis of current global issues surrounding environmental ruin and social inequality by highlighting the role of Islamic Studies scholarship. A vision of future scholarship in Islamic Studies and the perceived &quot;shifting times&quot; is presented in three parts: identification, explanation, and solution. Liberation, healing, and sustainability are the proposed solutions and outcomes for resolving current problems within an interpretation of Islam&#039;s sacred texts. In this regard, scholarship can make a significant contribution in challenging misconceptions that promote dominance, oppression, and violence.</p>
