Abstract: Abstract In Islamic tradition, the Prophet emphasized shared responsibility for essential resources: water, pasture, and fire. This principle aligns with the 2023 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Education, pivotal for sustainable development, integrates prosperity with cultural traditions and environmental preservation. Sustainable education, crucial for present and future generations, extends beyond formal schooling, championed by governments and global organizations. This paper explores sustainable development, encompassing social, economic, and environmental dimensions, ensuring present needs are met without compromising future generations. Education emerges as a cornerstone, fostering skilled, morally conscious citizens, vital for sustainable progress. Educational research, employing scientific methods to solve societal educational challenges, plays a pivotal role. The research identifies obstacles in achieving sustainable development, spanning economic, social, political, and cultural spheres. It underscores global successes in sustainable education, citing Japan, South Korea, Canada, and the Netherlands as examples.
