So modifying consumption pattern in Islamic economy is so important because of development aspect and controlling instinctive demands like selfishness, greed, avidity, and luxury-oriented as well; and consumer behavior theory in Islamic theory has its own special assumption.

To explaining this subject, in this research, first the difference between conventional economics and Islamic economics is explained; then the assumptions of Islamic consumer behavior are presented. Then, because of the importance of this subject in Iran's economy by using a questionnaire, data of 420 Muslims in different areas of Iran are gathered and with the descriptive method these data are analyzed. Results show that there is a gap between Iranian Muslim consumer's behavior and assumptions of Islamic consumer behavior theory.
