Abstract

Introduction: Islam has always stressed the importance of health and wellness. For centuries,
Muslims have recognized the value of a good, clean, and healthy life. The purpose of this study
is to explain the health-oriented lifestyle in the Islamic culture based on opinions, experiences,
and perceptions of clergies, teachers, and students.
Method: A qualitative research method was conducted in this study by grounded theory
approach. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with participants. Moreover,
the existing resources, such as case studies, life stories, letters, diaries, and press interviews
have been used.
Results: This study's central variable was deviation from moderation of thought, belief and
behavior. Seven main categories were gained by analysis of data. They were: "policy in the
health system", "Islamic education"," Islamic movement in people's family centered lives", "work,
effort, and money", "ethics and law abiding citizen", "mobility and leisure", "relationships,
interaction, and participation".
Conclusion: Lifestyle modification, in the process of acquiring healthy communities and social
capital, based on religious teachings could be the perfect solution for the problems of a healthy
life in the present day. In structural approach, the government should pay attention to such
issues like authority of the family, and supporting parents, and spouses, facilitate family
functions by systematic problem solving, and empower and strengthen institutions such as the
education system and media. It is suggested that educational institutions direct their teachings
toward empowering children of this society in order for them to better play their roles in family
and social life, and encourage them to use Islamic teachings
