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.

Elderly living arrangements in developing countries are important because governments cannot support them due to the lack of advanced health care systems. This study aimed to investigate the changes in living arrangements of people 60 years old and over during the last four decades (1984-2019) in Iran. The Household Income and Expenditure Survey (HIES) data conducted by the Statistics Center of Iran were analyzed. Findings indicated that elderly headship rate has increased over time. Although this growth observed for both sexes, it was double as high for women as for men. Most households headed by old men are nuclear households while women often take care of solo and single-parent households. More elderly people live alone nowadays and their household size has decreased during the time. Howbeit the number of households with an elderly head with an adult child has increased, but this co-residence does not have benefits for elderly parents. Indeed, changes in elderly living arrangements in Iran over the past three decades have led to more increasing pressure on the old ages and they have to accept more responsibilities such as household head and managing its needs.
