The aim of this study is to identify and analyze the indicators and requirements of sustainable urban planning for the development of underdeveloped urban areas in the city of Naseriyah, Iraq, and to provide strategies for the sustainable development of the studied neighborhoods. Naseriyah is one of the most populous and dynamic cities in Dhi Qar province in southern Iraq, which is developing and growing. Given the need for sustainable urban development in this region, examining the indicators and requirements of sustainable urban planning is of great importance. Therefore, in the present study, the research method is descriptive-analytical, and in terms of purpose, it is of an applied type. Library and field methods were used to collect information. SPSS, GIS, MEREC and MARCOS multi-criteria decision-making models were used to answer the research questions. The statistical population of the study included citizens living in the neighborhoods of Nasiriyah, as well as experts, specialists, and professors active in the field of study.The household sample size was calculated as 465 out of a total of 82,783 households using the Cochran formula. Snowball and purposive sampling methods were also used to select experts. According to the results, the results of the fuzzy hierarchical Delphi showed that the investment attraction indicators (W = 0.0499), urban management budget (W = 0.0481), and spatial justice in services (W = 0.0470) were given high priority. Also, the results of the single-sample T-test showed that in the social dimension, the average was higher than 3, and in the environmental, economic, and cultural dimensions, the average was lower than 3, which indicates weakness, and in general, urban sustainability: an average of 3.05 with a positive and significant effect. The results of the spatial analysis of the neighborhoods showed that the best neighborhoods were: "Local Administration", "Al-Hussein", "Saray" (overall sustainability index above 3.7) and the average neighborhoods were: about 3.3 to 3.6 and the weakest neighborhoods were: about 40 neighborhoods with an overall index below 3.3.Based on this, according to the results, it can be said that there is a clear and significant spatial inequality among the neighborhoods of Nasiriyah, such that central neighborhoods with an institutional structure have more facilities; marginal and informal neighborhoods face a lack of access. In addition, an independent t-test between the two groups showed that developed neighborhoods are significantly better than undeveloped neighborhoods in all dimensions (social, economic, environmental, cultural), and the largest gap is seen in the economic and environmental dimensions. The results of the MEREC weighting method and MARCOS analysis for spatial analysis and neighborhood ranking showed that the neighborhoods of the local administration, Al-Hussein, Saray, Sabeʹa and Saif, Salihiya are in high ranks and therefore have a desirable level of sustainability, and the neighborhoods of Kanazuwa, Al-Zawiya, Muhayyah, Wahabiya, etc. are in the last ranks and urban sustainability is at a very poor level.Therefore, there is severe spatial inequality, with services and infrastructure distributed in central neighborhoods. Finally, the results of the SWOT QSPM strategic model showed that in order to achieve sustainable urban development in the underdeveloped neighborhoods of Nasiriyah, it is necessary to prioritize the following strategies: designing and implementing a comprehensive urban plan = 4.673 (first priority), reforming the urban management structure (4.055), strengthening public services (3.656), economic development with spatial diversity (3.246), rehabilitating waste and sewage (3.24),
