Patterns of sustainable development in the book - Alfusul walghayati by Abu Al-Ala Al-Maarri(D. 449 AH)

Abstract

Sustainable development, the old idea, in the new term, is not new to Arab thought, and it was addressed in the Holy Qur’an - which is the oldest Arabic text written between two covers - and it contains everything that urges development and the preservation of natural resources, which are among God’s blessings upon us, and how to maintain personal hygiene. And the environment, and the most important laws that guarantee economic and social well-being and solidarity. The Most Gracious - the Almighty - organized in his noble book the affairs of this world and the afterlife, and drew the line for a decent life. Did the ancient Arab writers pay attention to this issue, and address it in their writings? Did they provide solutions to this problem? In this research, we will take the book(AL FUSUL WAL CHAYAT) by Abu Al-Ala Al-Ma’arri, and there are several reasons for choosing this book One of the most important reasons ;This book was accused of being in opposition to the Holy Qur’an, from Abu Al-Ala’s contemporaries, and that it was copied in its style. Did it address the topics that the Holy Qur’an dealt with in this issue? As for the research methodology, it is a descriptive and analytical method. The research consisted of two sections, the first: on the relationship between language and sustainable development and an introduction to the book  (ALfusul wal chayat in Glorifying God and Sermons), and the second: applications in sustainable development in the book
