【 摘 要 】

This paper aims to highlight the importance of integrating the Islamic worldview into the aspects of planning in general and into the planning of neighbourhoods in particular. In this paper I shall examine, firstly, the pertinence of the Islamic worldview to the notion of planning neighbourhoods. There we will see that such an enterprise was an integral part of Islamic urbanism from the era of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) till the waning of Islamic civilization. Next, the following principles will be discussed: (i) the Islamic idea of the settlement, (ii) Islam on creating building, (iii) peaceful co-existence with the environment and (iv) Islam on human dignity and fraternity among its members. Discussion on each of the mentioned principles will be followed by briefly analyzing their planning appear relevant and appealing to the Muslims of today will also be presented. While writing the paper, I have tried as much as possible to draw on the most relevant sources that deal with the theme at hand, the most important of which, certainly, are the Holy Quran and the authentic compilations of the Prophet Muhammad’s words and actions.
