چکیده:
Different scholars offer varying opinions regarding the application of the terms 'Islamic architecture', 'city', and 'urban planning'. These opinions can be classified across a wide spectrum, from complete rejection to skepticism and full affirmation. It seems that the main form of these disagreements relates to differences in opinion or a lack of linguistic consensus regarding the meanings of the terms and their instances. Furthermore, it is sometimes forgotten that worldview, architecture, and urban planning are closely interconnected. To clarify the discussion, this article will attempt to address the roots and foundations of the possibility of Islamic architecture and city, and in conclusion, provide definitions for these terms and similar ones. After a brief introduction, the topics of the article will be presented under the following headings: the process of attributing architecture and city to Islam, the relationship between intellectual foundations and Islamic 'architecture' and 'city', the history of the application of Islamic 'architecture' and 'city', the process of the formation of Islamic architecture and city based on Islamic teachings, Islamic thought and Iranian urban planning, and conclusion.
خلاصه ماشینی:
Despite the fact that sometimes the attribution of some theoretical and practical discussions and phenomena resulting from human activities (whether mental or physical, including art, building, and city) to the adjective "Islamic" is subject to denial or at least skepticism1, it seems that to examine and express an opinion regarding the denial and skepticism about the existence and the possibility of the emergence and manifestation of the Islamic aspect of these works, complex discussions are not needed, and by referring to Islamic texts and finding and providing answers to questions (examples of which will come in subsequent discussions), this doubt can be resolved.
It is obvious that the meaning of this statement is not that these individuals have reached the essence of the subject matter and theoretical foundations of Islamic architecture and urban planning (especially as they ought to be), but rather the important point is that they have noticed the distinct difference in the identity of their own art, buildings, and cities compared to the edifices and cities built by Muslims, and they believe that Islamic teachings and culture have played an essential role in the emergence of a specific civility, which they call Islamic civilization, and its subcategories and elements are called Islamic architecture, urban planning, sciences, philosophy, and art, although these (with varying degrees of strength and weakness) may not possess those characteristics that are intended by Islam.
