So far, no independent study has been conducted on the beauty and aesthetic aspects of the Qur'an. Considering the gap in the theoretical foundations of the experimental researchers about the recitation of and listening to the Qur'anic verses, the present study attempted to present and introduce a particular method to be used in the interdisciplinary studies and experiments with a focus on the art and beauties of the Holy Qur'an.

The present study used a combination of content analysis and interpretation methods for analyzing some of the verses of chapter ‘Insan’ of the Qur'an. This study is library-based analytical. Accordingly, the required data were collected using different sources including books and articles and after aesthetic analysis and comparison of the similar texts, the textual and content beauty and delicacy was examined. Depending on the topic being discussed, the text-to-text or inter-textual method was used for data analysis and the expression and novelty techniques and oldand new discussions were also drawn on for analysis. In the present article, an attempt was made to show a small part of the structural and literal beauty of Chapter ‘Insan’ under three subcategories of ‘syntax, ‘eloquence’ and ‘geometry’. The authorsreported no conflict of interests in this study.

The results of analysis show that the modern experimental methods can be used for theoretical expansion of the central core of religion, i.e. the Holy Book and the Prophet’s tradition, in the framework of and using Islamic sciences to avoid the liberal and extremist approaches. By aesthetic examination of the Qur'an particularly its geometric beauties, the developmental trend of human being in different aspects including training, education, research and guidance can be understood based on the Qur'an.

Finally, by examining the aesthetic elements of the chapter ‘Insan’, the position of Islamic sciences in relation to art therapy was clarified.

Today, due to the increase in longevity and life expectancy, a more important issue has been raised as how to live life or the quality of life, which has attracted the attention of experts and researchers in the field of aging. The present study examines the concept of quality of life in old age.

This research is qualitative in terms of method. It first analyzes the resources related to the quality of life of the elderly through meta-combination method. It was then carried out using interpretive structural modeling technique. MICMAC method was also used to cluster the dimensions of the quality of life in old age. In this study, all ethical considerations were observed and no conflict of interest was reported by the authors.

Based on the findings, five dimensions were identified by experts and finally the identified dimensions were classified into 5 level: at the highest level (first level) was the social interactions, which has the least influence on other factors, and at the lowest level (fifth level) was individual-internal factors that act as the cornerstone of the model. Therefore, increasing the quality of life of the elderly starts from this variable and spreads to other variables. The results of MICMAC analysis also showed that individual-internal factors have the highest influence and social interactions the most dependent.

Based on the results of the present study, it can be concluded that individual-internal factors and family experiences affect the quality of life of the elderly, which can ultimately increase the health of the elderly due to the influence of environmental factors. Identifying and promoting any of these dimensions can lead to an increase in the quality of life of the elderly.

The effect of social and cultural changes in the dynamics of semantic teaching and learning of the words and propositions of religious law and theology rises an issue this study has been intended to answer it. Therefore, the paper has studied the likenesses and differences of Wittgenstein and feqhi theories, namely the theory of the form of life and that of particular common sense. In the paper, Sunni and Shiite sources have been studied for the meaning of the feqhi particular common sense at first and, then, it has been compared with an exegesis of the form of life. As explained in the paper, the cases of likeness include the states of temporality, collectiveness, awareness and the case of difference include relativity. And, finally, with a secondary analysis of the case of difference, the posibility of its being neglcted has been studied.

Spiritual health and Semantics have a history as old as humanity. These concepts have been explained  in Islamic teachings by religious scholars in terms of the "perfect human" with a "confident soul" and a "pure heart". This article reviews the strategies for promoting and implementing Islamic spiritual health in the society.

This article was selected from a panel at the 6th Islamic Spiritual Health Conference and completed by using library studies.

The results showed that in order to promote Islamic spiritual health it is essential to "Explain concepts and examples", "plan educational programs for higher education", "integrate public policies in the health care system", "improve health care centers", "improve  knowledge, ", "assess and address the health system", "evaluate realities, threats, needs and priorities via monitoring,’and  evaluating the trend in improvement of spiritual health in the community and  the health system".

Improvement in spiritual health of the community is based on Islamic teachings .models and efforts of health policymakers and academia. Educational systems (public education, higher education, religious education, etc), health policymakers, religious leaders and responsible organizations for health and culture, have to develop a comprehensive program for education, promotion and generalization of spiritual health in all aspects of the health care system.

Health is a vital concept in human life and always the Human being shares some aspects of both animals and angels; while the greatest commonality of human and animals lies in physical and mundane features, wisdom is what human and angels have in common.
Although medical sciences have made considering similarities between human and animal inevitable in order to conduct experimentations and research, addressing this aspect of human being can divert attention from his spiritual dimensions.
Once we take a heavenly look at human moving away from his worldly dimension, we ascertain that human beings and angels have also commonalities which have been manifested in spirituality. This is what literally guarantees spiritual health.
This is also been highlighted in the holy Quran according which the mundane world lacks the capability of its management and discretion. The Quran explains that the world beyond this earthy world is the center of command and discretion, the angels being honorable creatures from the world beyond. (1)
As Ayatollah Javadi Amoli states, a patient is a human being in the first place; a human whose recognition leads to knowing God. Human has a body which is shared by animals and a soul shared by angels. In medical issues, the commonalities between humans and angels pointed out in the Quran should be taken into account (2
The holy Quran as well as the lives of the prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and our Imams (PBUT) along with that of pure believers are replete with such examples for further contemplation and research. Therefore, recognizing these commonalities and moving toward them will be in order. If done correctly, we will learn the truth, adding a beautiful unique aspect to our lives. Knowing God illuminates the souls and spirits of humans. (3) Undoubtedly, this is the lost chain of the contemporary world in which despite all the earthly benefits, human being is desperate and anxious. I we take meticulous look at our surroundings, we will find angelmannered people who risk their lives to keep others healthy. The onus is on us to appreciate what they have taken on. (4)
