Theology of the City

The necessity of developing and deepening religious thought in the present era, especially in the face of the various manifestations of Western thought aimed at weakening the foundations of human societies’ beliefs, is a fundamental principle in the establishment and development of the Islamic society. Theology and interdisciplinary studies, as one of the most robust foundations of thought, play a significant role in this regard. Therefore, proposing, explaining, examining, and critiquing the new perspectives of thinkers in the fields of theology and interdisciplinary topics, especially urban theology, is an undeniable necessity. Urban theology, which is an emerging topic in the field of city and urban planning, seeks to examine urban issues from the perspective of theology and religious knowledge.
