Trust and its functions are one of the most important indicators of social capital and have attracted humanities activists’ attention, especially sociologists, psychologists, and political scientists. Despite some books' publication in this field, less attention has been paid to the cultural, attitudinal, and insightful contexts of social trust, as well as its meaning investigation in the Qur'an context.
This research, with a descriptive-analytical method, by referring to sociological sources, has dealt with this concept's bases in the modern world's social trust, in order to compare this concept with the Qur'an context. The results indicate that social trust in the contemporary world is a reaction to the increase in risk-taking and individualism which the components of not determining the future, uncontrollable action and ignorance of another's possible action have brought the necessity of resorting to control and coercion. While the Qur'an's desired trust is based on a positive attitude (good faith) and collective faith, which includes determination, commitment and awareness. Individual norms and values ​​(attribute-oriented factors) and the social status (status factors) strengthens it.
