Abstract
Considering the status of peace in the human life, different schools of thought and theories, while interpreting and explaining the concept of peace, have endeavored to depict its necessity and application on the basis of anthropology and ontology. Islam also as a divine and universal school of thought considers a teleological perspective on peace and takes it as an original and deep-rooted issue with a special perception of human and ontological understanding. While the Western Schools of thought by putting the originality of war or ultimately the power-based perspective which would eventually lead to the war, offer a different conception of anthropology and ontology of peace. This paper is an attempt to address the main questions as to how these principles are different with each other from Islamic and Western Perspectives? and which perception and idea of the creation and human are closer and more realistic to the real peace? so that the difference in the answer to the questions is more clear that the generality of the Western schools of thought with humanist and means-based perspective rather than teleological approach have theorized to the purpose of the power and its requirements.
