There is a special view of the people in Imam Khomeini's political thought. On the other hand, the issue of social capital as one of the governance challenges is the subject of extensive theoretical discussions at different levels of analysis. In this regard, the present article, with the aim of examining the position of social capital components in Imam Khomeini's thought, used the method of quantitative content analysis and tested two hypotheses. Content analysis was performed with paragraph analysis unit in 22 volumes of Imam Sahifa. The priority of the components of social capital derived from the content analysis of the Imam Sahifah is as follows: Values and norms, social bonds, public trust, participation and ultimately social awareness. It was also stated in the second assumption that the content of the components of social capital in Imam Khomeini's view differs substantially from those existing in popular social capital theories. The overall conclusion of this study is that, in light of what has been examined in terms of the components of social capital from Imam Khomeini's point of view, the concept of "capacity of social excellence" is a more formal and expressive concept for the essence of these concepts.
