However, the scope of its duties encompassed economic, social and public security of the Islamic society. In this article, the various functions of Hisba as well as its role in establishing social security and preserving the values and religious norms in the community were investigated. The results indicated that the outcome of the functions of this institution in the field of monitoring the implementation of religious issues and maintaining ethics in the community as well as maintaining order and safety in the economic affairs and monitoring the performance of the traders and merchants, in the economic field, had led to the establishment of social security in the cities.
