This study has investigated the relationship between population aging and social development in the Islamic world. Research indicators include 49 indicators of social development. The type of research is applied and the method of its study is "descriptive-analytical". The data and information studied have been collected through documents and libraries. Although the number of young countries in the Islamic world is much higher than the elderly and middle-aged countries, but the percentage of middle-aged and elderly population is higher. This is because most of the elderly and middle-aged countries are the most populous countries in the Islamic world. Social development indicators show that Qatar has the best situation in terms of these indicators among Islamic countries. In the next place is the United Arab Emirates and finally in the third place is Iran. The classification of countries based on the spatial correlation coefficient indicates that the UAE and Saudi Arabia are in the first category (high aging and high social development) and the African countries of Guinea-Somalia-Chad are in the fourth category (low aging and low social development. In most fourth-class countries, the fragile structure of economic foundations has not allowed their economic and social development.

Abstract Today, metropolitan cities face many problems in the economic, social, environmental and physical fields such as reducing the livability and diminishing the importance of urban ecology in the urban housing structure. Therefore, the necessity and importance of paying attention to sustainable development theory and its resulting approaches, like the livability approach, will create a city away from the economic, social, environmental and physical problems. The purpose of this paper is to measure the variables affecting citizens' satisfaction from the status of the factors of the habitat of the metropolitan city of Shiraz, following a more scientific explanation and a more expert look on the factors of livability. Accordingly, in view of the study of theoretical literature on survival, a conceptual framework consisting of octagonal factors has been developed to study the formulation of research and analysis. This is an applied and descriptive-analytical method. The characteristics of gender, age, level of education and economic satisfaction as individual and independent characteristics have been identified in this regard, in order to determine their impact on the satisfaction of the condition of livability and its octagonal factors as dependent variables. The sample size was calculated using the Cochran formula and considering the maximum heterogeneity hypothesis for the 11 regions of the city of Shiraz, 384 people. In order to analyze the data, statistical methods such as frequency distribution, single sample T, Spearman, Fay and Kramer correlation coefficients were used. SPSS software was used for this purpose. Fuzzy multi-criteria methods were used to understand the livability position of the regions. The results showed that the satisfaction rate of citizens from the situation of livability is not favorable, and areas in zones one and two with a high and average satisfaction are the best places for survival. The reason for this is the livability of services and amenities in the areas of interest. Keywords: Livability, Livable City, Sustainable Development, Shiraz Metropolis.
