Social conformity is a proof of the fact that the behavior of society members originates from certain social principles and norms; however, the sole obedience of the majority to a rule or norm could not prove its favor. Here we refer to the Quran, as the main reference of defining accepted values of a society, to divide possible social conformity among society members into favorable and unfavorable. While we reiterate the importance of favorable conformities, we count the causes and consequences of unfavorable conformities and their disadvantages to the members of society. Also, we mention the factors leading to favorable conformity and state that sublime ideals, steadfastness and determination, sensible flexibility, good temperedness,needologyand troubleshootness, humbleness before people, and behaving different from oppressors make us achieve such goal. Our method is descriptive analytical doing library research; the Quran and its interpretations are the main references of ours. We have concluded some solutions to make conformity based on Quranic Teachings.
