        In addition to its functional role to provide communication and access to the venue of social and cultural activities, for a long time, the alley was considered as an important part of urban spaces in the context of Iranian cities. Many of these social behaviors are based on a set of meanings. For this research, the alleys of the historical context of Sari city were selected as a physical-cultural case study, because this city has a long history from pre-Islamic to the post-Islamic urban planning undergoing various changes. This research is based on the exploratory factor analysis research method which is a branch of correlation research and has been done by the analysis of covariance matrix method. This research seeks to explore the system of hidden meanings behind the current behaviors and activities in the alleys of the historical context of this city. In order to obtain appropriate measurement tools, a number of semi-structured interviews were conducted with a number of residents and some of the meanings of the alley were extracted from the results. By observation method, current activities in the alleys were recorded during the research period and the results were implemented in the objective-content table. The obtained meanings were completed with documentary sources and then a preliminary questionnaire was prepared and distributed among the statistical sample and the preliminary results were obtained. According to the results, the questionnaire was edited and the final questionnaire was prepared and distributed among the statistical population and the final results extracted. The results of the research show the continuity of tradition and social values derived from Islamic teachings in combination with Iranian culture in historical contexts. Gaining respect and social approval are other most important values of living in this place with the pattern of Iranian-Islamic culture. In the final research model, the role of other effective components in the formation of the network of alley meanings is shown. Manuscript profile

        The semiotics about ethic words in Quran is among the latest studies in the field of Qoranic researches aiming to discover new layers of meaning from Quran words through a systematic and accurate study. in the current text، it has been attempted to analyze the ethic word ''sacrifice" to its essential elements of meaning components through a semiotic and detailed look; in addition to the etymology of this word، its intersexual relations including collocation، substituational، and stylistic relations should be considerate. It must be concluded that the meaning of “sacrifice" in Quran is not a single-layered concept، but، it has interwebbed borders. Saving the essential meaning of “choose"، this word entered the Quran’s semantic system in its developmental path and covered components such as no intermediating، choice or authority، various alternatives، desirability، and positive and negative value weights. In the process of its meaning development، this word involved meaning allocation to the extent that today، whatever is suggested by the meaning of "sacrifice" has an absolute special and general relation.
