Molla Fesih Memiş, who provided important information about the burning of stubble that is frequently used among the public, emphasized that this method disrupts the balance in nature and causes great harm to both the soil and the living creatures within it.

Reminding that stubble burning is a sin because it harms living things, especially during this period when stubble burning cases increase due to harvest season, Molla Fesih emphasized that it is necessary not to disrupt the balance that Almighty Allah has established in the universe.

"Allah has elevated the earth and the sky and has placed the balance in the universe"

Molla Fesih explained the purpose behind the burning of stubble by farmers, saying, "As it is known, it is still harvest time in the Southeast region. Especially during this period, stubble burning is on the agenda. Our Lord Almighty says in the Quran, 'Allah has elevated the earth and the sky and has placed the balance in the universe.' He also commands not to disturb this balance. The issue of stubble burning in Turkey increased more after the transition to agricultural machinery era. Immediately after harvesting wheat or barley to obtain the second crop, corn, cotton, or melon seeds are sown. Stubble is burned to eliminate the remaining stems from the first crop. The farmer sees this as beneficial. Because during the harvesting process, harvesters cannot completely remove the stems, farmers tend to burn the stubble to completely get rid of them. As long as the stems are not removed, the seeds sown for the second crop cannot reach the soil and the yield is very low."

"Efforts should be made to support farmers by eliminating stubble through modern agricultural machinery"

Molla Fesih explained what needs to be done to prevent stubble burning, saying, "There are different methods instead of this method. The combine harvester should cut slightly lower to leave fewer stems. Or the Ministry of Agriculture, especially, should focus on preventing the formation of stubble and support farmers by eliminating stubble through modern agricultural machinery. If agricultural machinery suitable for these conditions is produced, stubble burning can be prevented. It also ensures healthier growth of our crops and products. Additionally, it may be a reasonable solution for the state to reward farmers who do not burn stubble by giving them extra bonuses."

Molla Fesih emphasized the damages caused by burning stubble on the soil and drew attention to the concept of "ecological balance" which is a Quranic expression and command.

"By burning stubble, we deprive our soil of future organic benefits and kill many beneficial microorganisms in the surface layers of the field. As a result, there is a significant organic deficiency in our soil. This will have a negative impact on us both socially and individually in the coming years. By burning stubble, we actually disrupt the ecological balance. We cause harm to the people living in residential areas by causing them to be harmed by smoke, damaging the nests of animals in nearby areas, and causing the death of hundreds of other pests. By burning stubble, we harm all of these."

"We will be held accountable in the hereafter for harming living creatures and disrupting the ecological balance by burning stubble"

Molla Fesih clarified the place of burning stubble in religion and sunnah, saying, "As Muslims, our religion that we believe in and our Prophet Aleyhisselam that we obey have forbidden harming living creatures. Especially punishing with fire is a matter specific to the Lord of the Universe. Humans cannot punish others with fire. Therefore, causing suffering to animals in this way, killing them by burning is a form of tyranny. We seek refuge in Allah from being cruel. A Muslim should not do this. Religious officials should constantly keep this issue on the agenda and raise awareness about the harms of stubble burning in the environments they are in. In the hereafter, we will be held accountable for harming living creatures and disrupting the ecological balance. Moreover, this incorrect method largely leads to soil erosion. It takes thousands of years for a productive soil layer of 10-20 centimeters to form, but it only takes a few years for that soil to disappear. Therefore, we should not put ourselves in a position that would make us deserving of these punishments by Allah Almighty. Our call to all farmers is: We must comply with these rules in order to leave fertile soil to the next generations. When we calculate the profit and loss, the harm caused by burning stubble is much greater than the profit gained. Therefore, burning stubble is not permissible in religion." said.
