Conception Pattern and Pattern Conception in Arab Islamic Architecture

The Arab-Islamic architecture is associated with a systemic set of conceptions that consider the Holy Qur’an and the Noble Prophet’s Sunnah through the public and the private, directive, enclosure, clustering, unity, activation, spatial flow, compactness, control, safety, and abstraction, in a way that makes the Arab-Islamic architecture form an integrated system. The associative value between the conception and the pattern appears in the Arab-Islamic architecture, considering that the concept constitutes basic building blocks through which mental visualizations can be developed to solve architectural problems. This is based on the transformational relationship of the system, which links concepts, rules, norms and traditions within the idea of the physical representation of the form, given that one of the poles of the basic pattern is the activity that is related to the event and which is characterized within the Islamic vision that its basis is the conception, in a way that helps to distinguish between the constants and the variables in order to show the states of transcendence. In a way that differs from activity within the Western framework, which is based on emotion and feelings.
The problem of that this study is manifested through the lack of knowledge between the conception and the pattern that governs the Arab Islamic architecture.
 The research adopts the hypothesis which shows the impact of the relationship between the conception and the format which is affected by the Islamic urban environment and its systems through a set of secondary values that govern them, which are considered as independent factors, characterized by high cases of abstraction in a way that makes them accept environmental developments within the concept of environmental mobility, then the dialectic of the cultural nucleus that expresses identity and cultural resistance appears. Peripheral culture, which refers to change and transformation, because of its association with personality.
The study shows that the most important concepts which constitute the fixed proportional system through which the patterns are generated up and down according to the requirements of the environment in a way that helps crystallize the relationship between the conception and the pattern as a reflection of the relationship between the conceptions and a set of values that affect the activity and which is related to the religious, social, economic, aesthetic, environmental and defensive system. Which shows its systemic projections through the urban form of Islamic architecture based on its organizational and design levels and the variables of assembling buildings and structural and complementary elements.
