Popis: Love is one of the few effective common topics in philosophy, art, mysticism. It can be believed that the greatest Greek philosopher who spoke extensively about love is Plato. His view had a direct impact not only on the philosophy of the Western world, but also on Islamic philosophy. In Islamic philosophy, love also plays a central role in Suhrawardi's works. They have also given an epistemological role to love. Another importance of this topic is that love has been introduced and played a role in the religion and thought of the West and the East by both philosophers., Both philosophers have presented an ideal city that cannot be imagined and understood correctly without understanding concepts such as love. On the other hand, a significant part of the current love affairs has taken a deviant path and caused a great distance between the current cities and the desired city in terms of human dignity, which requires the presentation of a correct model. Present research with a descriptive-analytical method aims to clarify what Plato and Suhrawardi thought about love, how they thought, what conclusions they made, and what lovemaking is like in their ideal city, and what are the commonalities and differences?
