Türkiye faces mounting environmental challenges that raise urgent political and ethical concerns. Although public mobilization against environmentally harmful practices is increasing, the role of religious worldviews in shaping environmental behavior remains underexplored. This study examines the associations between Islamic religiosity and Dark Green Religion, as conceptualized by Bron Taylor (2010), and environmental behavior. Survey data from 484 respondents were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling and Multigroup Analysis. Findings show that dark green religious values are positively associated with proenvironmental behavior, particularly among younger individuals. Islamic religiosity is also positively associated with nature-based spirituality and with feelings of wonder and humility; however, its effect on proenvironmental behavior is indirect, mediated by these affective dispositions. The results underscore the importance of integrating scientific, spiritual, and affective dimensions to strengthen environmental engagement and highlight the relevance of dark green spiritual perceptions for ecological policymaking in Türkiye and other Muslim-majority societies.
