The environmental crisis of Lake Urmia is considered to be one of the most important environmental, geological, and human dangers of the country. This condition makes it more necessary to study the main processes that influence the level of the water in Lake Urmia so that the suitable directional strategies and plans are applied to stop the decrease in the level of the sea. Taking this into consideration and indicating the impact of natural causes in this crisis’ accession and its augmentation, the study tried to Study the impact of human as well as population variables in this environmental issue. Six significant effective factors in human consumption were chosen to be studied and relating to the official data and statistics, it was found that the consumption patterns, both concerning the people and activities, are in poor condition. In almost all the factors studied, the capitation of water consumption was higher than the average of that value in the country which has resulted in an imbalance in the consumption patterns of the region. Accordingly, it seems essential to develop appropriate plans and strategies to control and manage the consumption patterns in both aspects of population and activities.

The Islamic World covers a wide range, extending from western Atlantic coast in South America to the western coasts of the Pacific Ocean on the Asian continent. An area that accounts for more than 22 percent of the world's drylands and includes vast sections of two continents, Asia and Africa, and small parts of the continents of Europe and America. The latent capacities of the value-centered environment of the Islamic religion provide the context for connecting the fate of each Islamic country to other nations. The connection of the destiny of Islamic countries to each other creates relative advantages, opportunities and clear horizons for the growth, development and authority of each Islamic country. The demographic characteristics of the Islamic world are one of the most important factors enabling the achievement of unity. The population of Islamic countries is 725,015,426.1. The average relative density of population in Islamic countries is about 114 people per square kilometer. Due to climatic conditions and geographical position, the concentration of the population is almost homogenous, and most people are concentrated in wet coastal areas and fertile lands.
