Religion and Social Wealth

In this article the relation between religion as an independent variant and social wealth as a dependent variant is investigated. In order to do this, after a methodological discussion and following the pattern of Max Weberʹs logics, "social wealth" is defined and then its qualitative elements such as "trust", "social awareness" and quantitative elements such as "amount of participation" and "communications" are mentioned. Then the most important teachings of religion which are effective in creating the two types of social wealth are analyzed and investigated.
