Abstract:
The human construction is either the pacific coexistence, sharing house, and living in one place or the state of affability in living together and meeting their needs, since it's human nature to help each other to live together. Construction means building. Architecture means the huge building or great district. Construction is divided into two types : social construction and engineering construction. The social construction deals with the social side and is called the science of human settlement. It includes planning a city and building society. Construction in language is the opposite of emptiness, and it is the building and erection. By social construction , Ibn Khaldoon means the social life and the social, political, and economic phenomena which accompany it. So, social construction is the domain of human sociology, and the researches who study the aspects of sociology reveal the laws that control it. Thus, the science of construction is our everyday terms is that type of sociology which includes all modes of life which lack luxury and sumptuousness and which also lack construction because its financial reasons are not available. This type of societies is called ''the necessary '' or ''Bedouin''. On the other hand, if there is construction and all reasons of luxury are there , the society is called ''civilized'' or '' urban''. While the engineering construction is concerned with building and erection which show the creativity of humans in the engineering side. Wherever human gatherings are found ,engineering construction is also found since it reflects human civilization on the social and engineering levels. Without neglecting the national principles, every nation or human gathering is recognized by its buildings and engineering heritage. Therefore, the study of human social construction according to scientists and intellectuals reflects abundant creations deserve to be attentively regarded and studied. Human Construction means the efforts that are adopted by any human gathering with creative abilities in building. It also means the study of civilization ,i.e. the methods of living, people's crafts , and life production in several fields as follows : 1 - The sciences which meet human's necessities.2 - The philosophies by which man answers his great questions and solves his bewilderments. 3 - Religions in which man finds what he ignores like the issues of existence ( the universe) . Religions and sciences give man satisfaction by knowing through experience. The ekistics , as Ibn Khaldoon states, is open in its study to the social incident and it always aims at stability since the transfer from Bedouin savage life to the settlement which leads to establishing cities and finding out an administrative , social, and political order. Hence, God has honored man , giving him the privilege which distinguishes him from all other creatures, it is the privilege of building and constructing the earth. So, man has been given a status of high value because he is active, unstable, he struggles, argues, discusses, smiles, cries, organizes life and things in life. Therefore, the signs of human construction before Islam, were positioned in the civilizations which came after the human gathering which represented the needs for the human life's laws. That's why we talked about the Greek, the Eastern, Mesopotamian, and the Nile civilizations which had a great influence on the human construction. Civilizations are the product of man's interaction with nature, and every achievement of any civilization is considered as an accomplishment for human; accordingly the Arab and foreign scientists have done well in the fields of science, philosophy, religious issues which are of great benefit in construction. That's why the fields of construction were clear in the ancient civilization like the pyramids, dam of Ma'rib, hung gardens in Babylon, Wall of China along with the appearance of great philosophers like Aristotle, Plato, Confucius and others. Concerning the construction in Islam , the social system was taken from the holy Quran and prophet Mohammed's instructions, taking into consideration building a safe social system where justice and intimacy prevailed among humans. The role of human construction has continued and rooted during the era of Imam Ali ( peace be upon him) and it was very clear during the era of Malik Al - Ashtar , who symbolized the fair judge. The role of Imam Zain Al - Abideen (peace be upon him) and his scroll '' Al - Saheefa Al - Sajadiyah'' in organizing the society affairs was very clear and considered by the United Nations as one of the most important scrolls in human rights. The constructors of the first three centuries after hegira have established philosophy , human construction, the role of the ruler and people , the importance of power and institutions. Those people had a great role in spreading Islam in east and west. Hence the importance of scientists and intellectuals in society shows that the significance of pen exceeds the importance of power. A group of contemporary intellectuals have participated in completing the basis put by the ancient intellectuals like Al - Jahih, Al - Farabi, Mascaweih ,Bairuni, Mawardi, Ibn - Khaldoon and others. Iraq and Arab home have been exposed to sabotage across ages. The destruction of man and environment has been negatively reflected on the human construction by the other invading civilizations. For that reason Iraq and Islamic Arab home have been considered the core of construction achievement. The third wave of civilization which represents the other face of globalization has destroyed the environment. The role of chaos and one action theory has a clear effect on human construction. Thus, the creative chaos means the destructive chaos which is planned to be a means of supporting the idea of civilizations clashes among nations and people, and this what has been noticed in our present. Justice is missing nowadays in the World because of globalization since 90% of wealth goes to luxurious people and only 10% goes to other people. Where is justice? This has led to a state of imbalance in the World. Human construction which has established on stability aimed at spreading justice among people making use of the proposals that scientists and intellectuals have come up with in the fields of social construction. The engineering construction as well, starts affecting by the social construction since there is no use of living miserably in a luxurious place or building and man's dignity is threatened because of globalization.
