Summer 2019 No.47 36 Research Abstract | Most of the damages to nature are brought about through negligence in putting living ethics into practice by city dwellers. This critical ignorance which is becoming a worldwide environmental crisis has put forward a change in attitude towards nature and its international constitutions and laws. In this regard, religious recommendations and regulations have been considered as significant influences through this change towards better living conditions. This research attempts to address the concept of morality in the light of Islamic thoughts and principles in physical space and provide strategies for proper exploitation of the environment. The method of this research is descriptive-analytic case study which first surveys modern religious theories with regard to the body of the desired cities and their architecture and then in case studies these theories are put into practice in order to provide a framework to study and verify these Islamic cities as significant samples. The studies show that the basic Islamic thoughts about environment have promoted universal, cultural, religious, and moral supports and have introduced a special framework in different environments, as is the case with the Islamic tradition by applying a new expression, to show the respect for nature in all possible aspects. Regardless of unfavorable climate changes, traditional cities in Iran are examples of Islamic teachings which provide the best environmental conditions for human beings in which nature is employed in designing and city architecture. Introduction | The history of human kind shows a permanent interaction between human and nature. However, this relationship has been tense over the last two or three decades, due to different factors such as population, growth, urbani- zation and technology. This situation is exacerbated by dis- regarding and disrespecting nature which is mainly caused by changes in attitudes towards nature. In order to overcome this problem, humanitarian laws have been adopted by inter- national constitutions which are largely ignored due to the lack of moral support from communities and people. Living Ethics Philosophical studies are related to the ethical issues facing humanity in various areas of biology, biotechnology, medicine, political science, law, philosophy and religion. The International court of justice Academy calls for international ethics to be maintained internationally by maintaining the cultural characteristics of each region, and through this, hu- man society, despite accepting the full protection of the envi- ronment in the manner of the implementation and organiza- tion of the provisions, depends on The cultures will be your own (Acadmie de Droit International de la Ha, 2015). In this regard, religion as a moral editor has been considered as a catalyst for the elimination of biological crises (Dupré La Tour, Nashshābah, 2000). In Islam, too, there is much talk about how human is connected with the environment, and the position of man and nature is markedly different. The Is- lamic teachings of the environment are universal, and they have cultural, religious and moral support. The history of Is- Behzad Vasigh ** Jundi-Shapur University of Technology, Dezful, Iran.
