“…To support their claim, the Alpha Project in Qatar (2010) (Figure 3) was presented as an example to show that designers used Girih tiles digitally to generate the structure skin of the building.

“…The United Arab Emirates was, and still is, one of the pioneer Middle East countries to adapt and blend Islamic architecture into the modern community. Patterns of the city, spatial configurations, architectural elements, and decorative ornamentation were noticeably, in many cases, inherited from ancient Mesopotamian and other pre-Islamic patterns Shafiq [12] explained that Islamic ornamentation is not a traditional heritage art. It is actually a dynamic art that can vary based on variable effects of the era indicated by the human vision in place and time.…”

Recently, scholars have embraced sustainability as a crucial concept deeply ingrained in architectural designs, particularly Islamic geometric patterns (IGP). These patterns hold significance in reflecting Islamic history, identity, and culture. This systematic review explores how scholars have integrated IGPs into modern design, considering the sustainability aspect. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews (PRISMA) reporting checklist was used due to its organized structure as a guide to conduct this review (2012–2022). Data was collected through recognized databases (i.e., Scopus and ProQuest) that house a wide array of journals and publications. Selected journals were categorized based on sustainability pillars—environmental, economic, social, and cultural. In addition, case studies from the region are discussed, as studies didn’t explicitly explore the connection between sustainability and the use of Islamic geometric patterns in modern design. Findings indicate that papers predominantly discuss the positive effects on environmental and economic sustainability through IGP implementation. Conversely, social sustainability received comparatively less attention from scholars. Case studies showed that most building designs in the Middle East use IGP to conserve Islamic history and identity, especially in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This review sheds light on the potential of geometric patterns as a vehicle for sustainable design and contributes to the broader discourse on sustainable architecture.

“…Islamic ornaments involve many regular shapes placed inside circular forms, where the shapes inside the circular forms emerge as star-shaped polygons. The rhythmical repetition of circles produces different arrangements formed at the connection points, creating motifs with more circles and polygons [32]. Every ornament is based on a motif derived from the contemplation of divine unity, where the ornaments are placed as if they extend in four directions from the center: upward, downward, to the right, and to the left [32].…”

“…Islamic geometric ornamental designs are based on the principles of symmetry and repetition [32]. Repetition is the most effective and important theme for geometric patterns, where ornamental designs generally generated by repeating square and triangle shapes [33].…”

Ethnomathematics makes school mathematics more relevant and meaningful for students. The current research aims to study the effect of using ethnomathematics in the context of Islamic ornamentation on learning the topic of congruent triangles. To achieve this aim, 30 10th-grade students engaged in ethnomathematics by learning about congruent triangles using Islamic ornamentation. Data was gathered via (a) videotaping and transcribing students’ learning and (b) students answering two parallel questionnaires that included proof questions on the three congruence theorems. The students were required to answer one questionnaire before the learning process and one after it. The main results indicated that the students succeeded in constructing the concepts of congruence and congruent triangles via the ethnomathematics learning process. In addition, the students succeeded in arriving at and formulating the three congruence theorems. Moreover, findings obtained from the questionnaires indicated that the students improved their proving processes as a result of ethnomathematics-based learning. Furthermore, paired sample t-tests indicated significant differences between the students’ mean scores before and after the learning process.
