Abstract :

Social development indicators are different based on the definitions established for the concept of development and based on different perspectives and organizations and institutions that are responsible for providing global reports of social development; However, it is certain that many commonalities can be identified between them, and since the scope of the concept and, accordingly, the indicators of social development in the Holy Quran is wider, therefore, the Quranic approaches have covered the mentioned indicators, although some of them are more prominent and more emphasized. In the preliminary investigations, indicators such as: participation, resilience, public supervision, etc. are emphasized in the Holy Quran in a more prominent way. One of these prominent indicators is "Social Takaful or Social Cooperation". This research seeks to answer the question that what is the relationship between the concept of takaful index in social sciences and the Quran and Quranic concepts? What are the conceptualizations that cover the subject of social takaful in the Quran and what are the Quranic elements and institutions for providing and realizing social takaful?
