Strategies of Social Control from the Perspective of the Holy Qur’an in Comparison with Hirschi’s View

Since human beings need to follow the laws and behave in accordance with the expectations of that society in order to live in a society, tools and methods must be used to monitor and control the people of the society and prevent social deviance. In this study, Hirschi’s social control strategies are compared with the strategies of the Holy Qur’an. Hirschi considers the parameters of commitment, attachment, involvement, solidarity and belief as the most important parameters in social control. He believes that a society or group that has strong interdependencies between its members can control its members more than a society or group whose members are not strongly related to each other. While the social control of religion by expressing direct supervision of God and the Prophet and the Imams on human behavior and deepening religious faith and beliefs, belief in the Day of Judgment and belief in the consequences of behavior, along with executive guarantees of effective reward and punishment for normal and abnormal behaviors, increases people's motivation and better compliance. Qur’anic components are based on a set of individual, social and meta-social factors to control the behavior of individuals in society, which examines the factors affecting human behavior and various social variables and their impact. And explains that the deeper the values and norms within the individual, the easier it is to socially monitor the individual. Therefore, the Holy Qur'an explains the most comprehensive and complete laws for controlling the members of society and in accordance with their nature to achieve the worldly and otherworldly happiness of human beings.
