The world without the forest is like a tree without the fruits. Forest is Allah creation which has been made before human. Forest has live for a thousand decades or even before that. Human will never know how long forest has been created by Allah because only He knew it.In a hadith said that those who cut the bidara tree in open spaces without any cause, when it became a shelter for the musafir and animals, then Allah lower his head in the fire of Allah.[1]This shows that Allah really meant human need to take care the forest. Year by year forest are extinct through the globalization human made. Globalization has taken the world more than 100 years since the Rasulullah time but the globalization became more aggressive since the technology world came. This statement conclude that globalization and technology cannot be separate or apart. Because of technology too deforestation occurred. Deforestation occurred along with technology and globalization which shows technology is the main cause for worlds current issues. Forest has many important to the world. They produce biodiversity to help maintaining the world. Occurring of water cycle is one of the part of forest. Forest assets are a part of regional economy. Besides that forest help in pursue a wide range of traditional livelihoods.

What I am going to say might seem to have no direct connection with the main theme of this Conference. (1) In reality, however, the problems I am going to deal with are not irrelevant to the problem of alienation even within the confines of Islamic philosophy, particularly with regard to the existential and metaphysical aspects of alienation. But instead of trying to connect my problems directly to the topic of alienation, I shall rather explain the basic structure itself of Islamic metaphysics. I want to bring to your attention one of the most important types of the philosophical activity of the Oriental mind as exemplified by the thought of some of the outstanding philosophers of Iran. I believe this kind of approach has some significance in the particular context of East-West encounter in view of the fact that the East-West philosophers' Conference, as I understand it, aims at creating and promoting a better mutual understanding between East and West at the level of philosophical thinking.
