Summary/Abstract: Throughout history religion has had important social functions in most societies. Religion generally performs these social functions through institutions. In this article, institutions that have close relations with religion and its relation with these institutions were studied. Therefore, relationship of religion with other institutions must be dealt from a sociological perspective in order to understand social function of religion better. In this study, institutions that regarded as related with religion are: institutions of education, family, morality, law, and economics. Because relation of religion with other institutions varies in terms of social structure and secularisation level of the societies, this relation should be studied more often on the basis of societies.
