One of the most important needs of a society is social security, and it is appropriate to refer to the Qurān to explain the strategies for achieving it. By examining the verses of the Qurān, we find that the concept closely related to security, both etymologically and in meaning, is faith (Īmān). Since the use of words in the Qurān is wise, the connection between these two concepts can be seen as a divine clue about the impact of faith on achieving security. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between faith and security and to explain the strategies of the Thaqalayn (the Qurān and the Ahl al-Bayt) in ensuring social security through a descriptive-analytical approach, by examining Qurānic verses and traditions of the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them), who are the interpreters of the Qurān. The findings of the study indicate that faith has a significant impact on achieving social security. If believers in society implement measures such as addressing the needs of vulnerable groups, fostering peace-oriented behavior, fulfilling the duties of governmental institutions in ensuring social security, increasing faith and religiosity, and promoting ethical behavior -which encompass numerous strategies- they will have a noticeable impact on achieving social security.
