description In the beginning of the International Style receding, at the modernism stage breeches, and the post-modern start, in the last quarter of the previous century, when Architects and Thinkers called to return to heritage and historical worth, to obtain the architectural identity, the Architects and Thinkers of Arab and Muslims got back inducing the ancient architectural heritage of towns and buildings, to reveal the Arabic and Islamic identity. The Urban Fabric of these ancient towns was, as a result, one of the most important pedestals of deep-seated characters of the Islamic and Arabic identity, through its organic pattern, co-operative condensed fabric, close bendy lanes, and closed courtyards. But the structural analyses of the ancient urban fabric, in this paper,clarified some facts, the Condense Fabric and the closed courtyards were a synchronic solution of the climatic circumstances, fitting the synchronous technical evolution, the Organic Pattern of the Urban Fabric was a reflection of the absence or weakness of the central authority, that couldn’t make initial planning of towns and sectors. This research approves an Islamic doctrine for urban fabric, deeply different of the current in the previous studies.
