This also led to the blossoming of commercial ties inside and outside the country. Urban industries expanded in cities and substantial changes occurred in villages as a result. Being focused on the role and function of cities and villages of every region, these urban-rural currents made changes and influences with concentration on all spatial dimensions of the settlements. These changes ORIGINAL ARTICLE Accepted and ties may bring about developmental or non-developmental consequences for each urban and rural space Received (villages). This research tries to study and analyse the reciprocal relations of the surrounding cities and villages of Khorasan Razavi- Central Mashhad district with its surrounding villages by descriptive-analytic method. The way of gathering information for this paper is documentary (library) and field method including 04 questionnaire, observation, interview the villagers and the likes. Results indicate that Mashhad is one of the 29 Dec major centres into which migrants move. This area is distinguished in the region and has a relative priority Sep because of accumulation of wealth, manpower, facilities, and the holy Shrine of Emam Reza (peace is upon . 2013 . 2013 . him) in this area. The area has a reciprocal communication with its surrounding rural areas. Mashhad has a more dominant position compared to its rural areas. The dominant pattern in this area is the central place pattern and the sphere of influence pattern. Of course, it performs these two functions in recreational-leisure and leisure-resort aspects. As a result, creation and expansion of these functions in rural areas within the past decades have been a spontaneous move with no planned measure on the whole. For this reason it left unfavourable effects and consequences in various fields. Therefore, it is necessary to control and direct these changes toward the integration of city and village based on Islamic documentations in this area. Key Words: Islam, Urban-Rural Patterns, City, Village, Mashhad. INTRODUCTION The relations among settlements and particularly between the city and the village manifest as population currents, goods, wealth, beliefs, information, and innovation. These relations are the spatial and geographical phenomena. The general rules governing these relations are identified, explained, and explored within the framework of reciprocal human relations and the geographical environment. These relations are of particular theoretical and applied importance. Regarding the effect of these relations on the process of changes and developments of rural and urban centers, studying the kinds and reasons of relations in addition to understanding their social, economic, cultural, spatial, and anatomical consequences and effects on the city and village, and attempts to reduce the negative consequences of these relations, will pave the way for sustainable development of rural and urban areas. Today, urban dwelling in the third world countries has a higher pace than industrial countries particularly in Islamic countries. It is goes without doubt that such remarkable urban development would not occur without profound changes in demographic characteristics (population growth, immigrations, and demographic currents), economic conditions (incomes, overheads, export and import), social characteristics (cultural, political, tribal, religious, racial, and lingual), and the anatomical and morphologic characteristics of the cities. The stability of urban and rural population in Islamic states throughout the world has been recognized as the most crucial challenge of the twenty first century [1]. Demographic outflows from villages into cities are considered as the important aspect of village-city relations and the most objective and tangible dimension thereof. The expansion of villages and cities and establishment of useful reciprocal relations can help stability and fixation of the population of both city and village. Statement of the problem Islam is a comprehensive value system which determines all patterns of behavior and social organization. The anatomical morphology of settlements such as cities and villages is the outcome of Islamic faith. Hence, a proper understanding of Islam leads to understanding the structure of Islamic cities [2]. To cite this paper: Hajilou, Z. Karkehabadi Z. and Khajehnabi F. 2014 The Analysis of the City and Village Relations and Models in Islamic Countries. J. Life Sci. Biomed. 4(1):26-34. Journal homepage:http://jlsb.science-line.com/ 26 With the arrival of Islam, the social structure took an Islamic appearance and underwent a natural change, evolution, and expansion, with a new form through the change in the anatomical structure [3]. The penetration of Islam in the cities of Iran caused deep changes in the social, economic, and political system of the countries and villages of Iran. This led to the expansion of commercial ties inside and outside the country. Islam also helped the expansion of urban industries throughout the cities and substantial changes in villages. Focusing on the role and function of the cities and villages within each area, these urban-rural currents provided the grounds of evolution and influence based on all spatial aspects of settlements. Such changes caused a kind of duality between the city and village. The increase in population, the rapid pace of urbanization, and descending agricultural returns for the small peasants particularly in developing Islamic states including Iran indicate that urban-rural ties and interactions play an increasingly important role in the local economy and the livelihood means of a great number of people [4]. Mashhad is a city of 200 square kilometers and is inhibited by a population of 2991644 persons. As the biggest city of Khorasan Razavi province, it is known as one of the most prominent metropolitans of the country. The city has been especially known as an important tourism and pilgrimage city since old times. In addition to its tourism and pilgrim attraction, the city is now important from cultural, scientific, political and economic terms so that it welcomes over 12 million pilgrims and travelers each year. Moreover, it enjoys unique commercial and economic facilities as it is in the route of Asian highway. Today it is home to one of the most important customhouses of Iran [5]. A look at the appearance of the city could help us understand the relations between Mashhad and its surrounding villages on the basis of Islamic culture. In fact, one can notice bipolarity and an egregious gap between the city and the village in Mashhad and its neighboring villages. Regarding the significance of the city, the theoretical patterns dominating the relations of Mashhad and its surrounding villages are analyzed in this paper. Also, the pattern dominating Mashhad and its surrounding villages is studied. Theoretical Fundamentals of Research 1. City from the Point of View of Islam: From old times, city has been a geographical space which indicates the ideologies of the dominant systems. On this basis, the Islamic city reflects the lofty contemplations of Islam in all of its aspects [6]. Based on the cities’ dominant architecture, urban planners held that it is a city built upon an Islamic culture. In the model of the Islamic city, the dominant element is Islam. All indicators and elements of social life and the anatomy of the city are organized based on this factor [7]. Generally speaking, the Islamic culture is a specific type of religious culture with people manifestation. It left two major influences on our cities: 1- Changing the city dwelling behavior of people. 2- Changing the appearance of cities. With the arrival of Islam in Iran, fire temples were ruined and replaced with mosques (Masjed Jameh). Kohandej was ruined and its walls fell to the ground with the walls of Sharestan; suburbs flourished and were inhabited by people. Other pillars of the city changed and the market started expanding with a new order and fresh principles and relations. A city formed around every local market with its own tribal, racial, and religious origins, and each with its own particular mosque, small market, school, bath, and other buildings [8]. An Islamic city includes spatial representation of social building and form, which accompanies communicative forms and ornamental elements based on Islamic ideals. Beyond the social concept, another principle that dominates the Muslims community is not being constrained to time and not having a specific geography which is defined by the concept of Islamic nation [9].

  • Reaching the Poor in Mashhad City: from Subsidising Water to Providing Cash Transfers in Iran
    Int. J. Water, Vol. 10, Nos. 2/3, 2016 213 Reaching the poor in Mashhad City: from subsidising water to providing cash transfers in Iran Jalal Attari Power and Water University of Technology, Hakimiyeh, Tehran, Iran Email: [email protected] Meine Pieter van Dijk* International Institute of Social Studies, Erasmus University, 3062PA Rotterdam, The Netherlands Email: [email protected] *Corresponding author Abstract: In 2011, the Iranian Government started paying cash transfers to compensate for higher prices of basic commodities and public services. The first phase of this reform is analysed. The effects of the reform with regard to domestic water consumption within the country and more specifically in the city of Mashhad, located in North West of Iran, have been examined. To do a policy impact study, we investigated the water bills of poor people residing in suburbs of Mashhad, and carried out a household survey. The overall water consumption has decreased in the entire city, but the decline was more significant in the suburbs which are predominately populated by poor residents. Paying the rebate directly to the consumers has been effective in terms of water demand management. This new approach has increased equity among consumers. However, macro-economic conditions have changed drastically and cash transfers are no longer substantial, given inflation and tariff increases.

  • Saudi Arabia Relations Figuring out the Next Move
    Briefing January 2016 Iran-Saudi Arabia relations Figuring out the next move SUMMARY Relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia – two powerhouses and major rivals of the Muslim world – have always been complicated. The 1979 Revolution in Iran, and the Iran-Iraq war (1980-1988), have contributed to entrenching their historical antagonisms and left an imprint in the foreign policies of both Iran and Saudi Arabia. Since 2011, Tehran and Riyadh have repeatedly exchanged blows, including through their proxies in Syria, Iraq and Yemen. Iran has also often been accused of interfering in the internal affairs of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and other Gulf countries with significant Shiite minorities. Iran, on the other hand, has accused Saudi Arabia of promoting anti-Shiite policies and practices. Both sides have also resorted to downgrading or suspending diplomatic ties in the past – as was the case of Iran and Saudi Arabia in 1988, and Iran and Bahrain in 2011 and 2015. In that sense, the recent decision by Saudi Arabia and several other Gulf countries to cut or downgrade diplomatic ties with Iran does not represent a radical change in their bilateral relations but is nonetheless worrying given growing sectarian problems in the region. The escalation of the conflict between Iran and Saudi Arabia – only a few weeks after the two countries sat for the first time at the same table to discuss the conflict in Syria – comes at a particularly sensitive moment. Implementation of the carefully brokered diplomatic undertakings of the past few months – in particular the nuclear deal with Iran and the implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 2254 (2015) on Syria – depend on good relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran.

  • Demographic and Clinical Characteristics of Severe Covid-19
    Goshayeshi et al. BMC Infectious Diseases (2021) 21:656 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12879-021-06363-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Demographic and clinical characteristics of severe Covid-19 infections: a cross-sectional study from Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, Iran Ladan Goshayeshi1,2†, Mina Akbari Rad3†, Robert Bergquist4,5, Abolghasem Allahyari3, Kamila Hashemzadeh6, MUMS Covid-19 Research Team and Benyamin Hoseini7,8* Abstract Background: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (Covid-19) is expanding worldwide. The characteristics of this infection in patients varies from country to country. To move forward, clinical data on infected patients are needed. Here, we report a comparison between fatalities and recovery of patients with severe Covid-19, based on demographic and clinical characteristics. Methods: Between 5 March and 12 May 2020 in Mashhad, Iran, 1278 of 4000 suspected Covid-19 patients were confirmed positive by real-time reverse-transcriptase–polymerase-chain-reaction assay of upper respiratory specimens. We compared the demographic, exposure history and clinical symptoms of 925 survivors and 353 fatal cases with confirmed disease. Results: Mean (SD) age for all confirmed patients was 56.9 (18.7) years, 67.1 (15.9) years in fatal cases and 53.0 (18.3) years in survivors. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the outcome of patients was associated with age (odds ratio = 1.049, P = 0.0001, 95% CI = 1.040–1.057). Despite a high burden of Covid-19 infections in the 30–39 and 40–49 year age groups, most of these (89.6 and 87.2%, respectively) recovered. The median (IQR) duration of hospitalization was 9.0 (6.0–14.0) days.

Based on field observation and contour plots four fractures set revealed. According to kinematic analysis, three set of fractures identified as outcrop scaled faults because of right lateral strike-slip separation. Parameters like length and spacing measured for all fractures set and maximum displacement (dmax) and its relation with length calculated only for faults. These factors help us in order to determine whether the spatial distribution of fractures is fitted with power law or not. Based on fracture map whether or not the fracture geometry is self similar, was examined by using a box counting method. The fractal dimension in the Derakhte-Bid tonalite varied from 1.41 to 1.66. The results prove fracture array in this region fitted with power law and seem they have fractal nature 1. Introduction The elastic properties of earth materials are strongly affected by the spatial distribution of fractures.

The first two were introduced, whilst R. pyctoris is native and lives in mountain- ous regions from Pakistan to north-eastern Iran. In this study, the mitochondrial DNA from twenty six rats were analysed using a PCR-RFLP (Polymerase Chain Reaction - Restriction Fragments Length Polymorphism) method to investigate inter-specific variation. Part of the 16S rRNA and cytochrome b genes were amplified and digested with three restriction en- zymes: AluI, MboI and HinfI. Restriction fragments resulted in four different haplotypes and allowed to distinguish the three Rattus species. Our results suggest that the Himalayan rats are more closely related to R. rattus than to R. norvegicus and provide the basics for further phylogenetic studies. Key words: Rattus norvegicus, R. rattus, R.

Hanjra and Pay Drechsel Supporting case for Business Model 20 Location: Mashhad plain/city, Iran Waste input type: Treated wastewater Value offer: Treated wastewater for farmers in exchange for freshwater for urban use Organization type: Public and private (farmer associations) Status of Operational (since 2005–2008) organization: Scale of businesses: Medium Major partners: Khorasan Razavi Regional Water Company, Regional Agricultural Authority, farmer associations downstream of the Kardeh and Torogh dams Executive summary This is an inter-sectoral business case whereby treated wastewater from Mashhad city is exchanged for freshwater from farmers in Mashhad plain, Iran. In this business case, the regional water company negotiated the exchange of freshwater rights from farmer associations against access to treated wastewater. The main objective is to mitigate the impact of water scarcity in the urban area and to improve farmers’ continuous access to water, also in view of the declining groundwater table in the Mashhad plain. The exchange of reclaimed water against reservoir water rights is one of two parts of a larger water swap project. It involves a number of villages downstream of two dams with the aim of exchanging annually fixed volumes of water: 15.7 and 9.4 million cubic meters (MCM) of treated wastewater for 13 and 7.8 MCM water rights from the Kardeh and Torogh dams, respectively. The project started in 2005 to 2008, and successfully replaced with treated wastewater the fresh water relocation to the city.

  • The System of Rural Service Rating in Mashhad County (The Second Metropolis of Iran)
    Sustainable Development and Planning II, Vol. 2 1199 The system of rural service rating in Mashhad county (the second metropolis of Iran) H. Shayan Department of Geography, Ferdowsi University, Iran Abstract Nowadays concerning the improvement of access of the rural population to basic services, most of the developing countries have included some plans and objectives in their planning systems. In late 1999s the supreme council of urbanization and architecture in Iran (composed of 8 ministries and the Management and Planning Organization) ratified a law concerning the organization of rural spaces in three levels of System, Collection and Area. Therefore, locating these three centers, based on the basic geographical location, connection networks, political divisions, administrative, strategic or security factors and cultural, social, economical and environmental harmony is the inevitable priority that should be carried out with no postponement. Meanwhile functional and access capability methods have been used together with local research in order to assess social satisfaction. The present article shows the result of rating the rural service provision in the Mashhad county in 2003. On the whole 7 System centers, 29 Collection centers and 66 Area centers were chosen out of 573 villages and 6 town/city to equip and enforce their operation so that the ground for effective service provision and better access is prepared and finally the complementary relationship or the balance between city and village is obtained. Keywords: rating, rural service, system, collection, area, satellite villages, Mashhad. 1 Introduction Before “Mashrote” revolution in Iran (1905), there was not much difference between city and village from the point of view of enjoying different facilities so WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, Vol 84, © 2005 WIT Press www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3541 (on-line) 1200 Sustainable Development and Planning II, Vol.
