Abstract :
Objective(s): creating a suitable social life and social solidarity is vital requisite. Thus, the sociologists have offered theories of “differentiation” and “resemblance” as patterns of analyzing solidarity. They have also come up with various elements of strengthening or disrupting social solidarity. Methods: the present research is based on a descriptive-exploratory method. Thus , for deduction of the Quranic data, the writer has analyzed the content of the Quran. Conclusion: from the Quranic perspective, there is no precise difference (border) between solidarities that the theories of “differentiation” and “resemblance” cite ; according to this outlook, both the "individual" and "society" are subjects toward the reality and have independent identities .So, the Holy Quran in order to explain social solidarity talks of the following constituents “strengthening emotional dependency”, “sociability” and “performing religious rites”. Contrary to that the Holy Quran introduces “normative disorders” ,“Inequalities arising from injustice”, “telling lie” and “disrespecting” as factors which disrupt social solidarity.
