<p>The increasing and spreading of population in Bukittinggi emerges several environmental problem, such as; the population density above 500 people per hectare, air pollution, traffic congestion, limited sources of clean water, limited green space for the people, poor sanitation, and drainage, and the poor of city planning and construction. One of the crucial issues of environmental management is the low participation and awareness of the community on the waste management even they are the strong adheres of religion beliefs and culture. How the public narration and opinion on the awareness of preserving the environment so that it affects the participation of the Muslim communities on the environmental management is a phenomenon that will be answered in this study. This qualitative study has found that the narration of Muslim community awareness does not affect their participation on the environmental management, especially community-based waste in Bukittinggi City, which in general has not been going properly. There are other factors outside of the religious awareness and cultural factors in the lack of community participation, such as, the implementation of regulations and environmental policies and the absence of certain planning in the management of community-based solid waste management because of several obstacles including the lack of community awareness, the absence of waste management and limited funding processing.</p><p> </p><p class="abstrak"><em>Pertambahan</em><em> </em><em>jumlah</em><em> </em><em>dan penyebaran penduduk di Kota Bukittinggi menimbulkan persoalan lingkungan seperti; kepadatan jumlah penduduk di atas 500 jiwa per hektar, polusi udara, kemacetan lalu lintas, </em><em> terbatasnya sumber </em><em>a</em><em>i</em><em>r </em><em> </em><em>bersih/minum, terbatasnya ruang terbuka hijau bagi warga, buruknya sanitasi dan drainase, serta jeleknya penataan kota dan pembangunan.
