The research addressed a critical analytical study of the moral basis of scientific
knowledge from the viewpoint of the contemporary philosopher of science Karl popper,
throughout his opinion on the fact that scientific knowledge is incomplete when
not based
on cognitive approach and moral content which protect it from slipping and error, stressing
the close relationship and the strong correlation between knowledge and ethics, which if
deviated affected the standards of science as a whole.
Results showed that knowledge, generally, is everyone's right to possess, threr
resides the truth, and to reach this truth there must be many methodologies, says popper,
the most important of which is the critical approach and rational dialog, by which we
realize that the human makes mistakes and, consequently, his knowledge may be wrong,
and to access the real scientific knowledge the skeptical approach should be followed in
which the premise is tested in different ways.
Popper pointed out that the insightful human recipient can exercise these logical
operations, and the insightful human is naturaly forgivable non- fanatic, open to criticism,
non-monopolistic of knowledge and therefore the basis of knowledge is purely ethical,
without which knowledge loses its meaning and credibility.

Then all these "dresses" torn out under the wheels of nineteenth and twentieth century
development, and controlled by technology and digital programming of twenty first-century.
This paper is based on morally experience as an invitation to live in
a city aimed to
make its individuals reach the highest levels of human perfection, by treating the city concept
with traditional means and methods the modern city needs to complete its development
procedures more than technology, economic abilities, and strategy qualifications. So, an
imaginary city had been created with the same name as Damascus, and same geographic
location, Barada, Qasion, Al-Ghoota and every part of it is exactly the same, except for the time.
It was unspecified. Finally, the paper induces to use the virtue concept as a key to solve all the
city issues and as a base for its reforming and organizing process.
