Background and Theoretical Foundations: In Islam, some laws support the environment in wartime, while this issue has been reached after the Battles of the Middle Ages and the arrival of the Industrial Revolution in Europe, and later in international law, it has come in the form of treaties and conventions. The global view of environmental components shows the world trapped in a dangerous situation. Methodology: In this research, using a descriptive-analytical method and collecting library and documentary resources, the perspective of Islam and international law on the environment during wartime was examined, with an emphasis on the marine environment. Findings and Conclusion: Results showed that wars, as one of the human actions, have caused extensive destruction to the human environment and other living beings. There are two types of laws to protect the environment during wartime. First of which is international laws during wartime that are considered critical conditions compared to peacetime. The second is the laws of armed war. These laws are not comprehensive for the protection of the environment and require a stronger implementation guarantee. For this reason, in addition to international laws and documents, it is necessary to use all available capacities, including the teachings of Islam. Therefore, observing Islamic principles and teachings, adhering to international laws, and creating a protective regulatory body will make it possible to protect the marine environment.
