عن أنس رضي الله عنه عن الرسول صلى الله عليه و سلم قال: إِنْ قَامَتْ السَّاعَةُ وَفي يَدِ أَحَدِكُمْ فَسِيلةٌ، فَإِنْ اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ لاَ يَقُومَ حَتَّى يَغْرِسَهَا؛ فَلْيَغْرِسْها

Anas bin Mālik relates that the prophet (peace be upon him) said: "If the Hour arrives and in the hand of one of you is a Faseelah and if he could stay until it was planted; So let him plant it."

H&M in Jeddah

Okay, so it's been open for a while, but I doubt that anyone knows just how awesome H&M is. Not just for your closet, but the planet.



H&M has been green for a while now. They've been supporting UNICEF in Uzbekistan to help children and prevent child labor in the cotton industry since July. They also use organic (no pesticides) cotton in a lot of their products (the labels on each product indicates if it's made of organic cotton). As if that wasn't enough, every year they publish a report with information on how they're being responsible. Check it out here.

Ferragamo Goes Green

According to FashionWeekDaily and FabSugar:
Ferragamo has gone green. In an effort to preserve the Earth, the luxury brand has created a line of eco-friendly handbags named Eco Ferragamo. What makes this collection special is that the bags are made from a nontoxic tanning technique, are lined in handwoven hemp, and use dyes from natural elements such as tree bark. The results, seen below, are luxurious, biodegradable, and water-resistant bags. The Eco Ferragamo collection ranges from small totes to maxi hobos made in hues of tobacco brown, lemon yellow, and grapefruit pink. The bags retail from $1,190 to $1,890 and will be available come February.
