An edited version with revisions is published here in HTML, with new illustrations and captions. This article was first published in January 2002. The following article, recalling salient aspects of the rich tradition of Islamic architecture, provides a brief discussion on the concept of Islamic architecture and reviews a number of its key theoretical issues circulating in the Western academic circles. For all these types of constructions, Islamic architecture developed a rich vocabulary that was also used for buildings of lesser importance such as public baths, fountains and domestic architecture. The principal Islamic architectural types are: the Mosque, the Tomb, the Palace, the Fort, the School, and urban buildings. At the same time, it highlights those current trends that reinforce the necessity of the inclusive approach and enrich its varieties of appearance.Islamic architecture encompasses a wide range of both secular and religious styles from the foundation of Islam to the present day, influencing the design and construction of buildings and structures in Islamic culture and beyond. The book provides a comprehensive view of the equality-based theory of inclusion and points out opportunities of practical realization in this interpretational framework. ![]() With examining various situations, it will illustrate how the presence or the lack of actions for mutual acceptance influences the life of individuals and their communities. ![]() The volume presents the components of the viewpoint necessary for the implementation of inclusion, the history of its evolution, its systematic approach and the expanding areas of its appearance. Striving for mutual acceptance, as I define inclusion, is the way that the society has to go through in order to make headway for the realization of successful co-existence. The new interpretation of a well-known fable, the story about the dinner of the fox and the stork serves the purpose of giving an example of opening new horizons based on the approach of inclusion.
