Abstract

Social and participatory institutions under titles such as non-governmental organizations play an important role in civic education and socialization of individuals in actions and reactions for interactions and communications, and ordering in the realm of human social life, which can be the providers and guarantors of social order and consequently legal order. The mosque is one of the historically established models of non-governmental social organizations, in which various aspects of citizen education can be studied in the realms of convergence, synergy, and solidarity for the realization of a desirable and worthy society. Recruiting a documentary approach and a review of the studies conducted, this article found that moral education in the institution of the mosque cultivates individuals committed to social and legal norms, which will lead to the advancement of civility and social and legal socialization. Essentially, it can be said that the mosque-educated and congregation-trained individual has a greater practical commitment to observing social and legal rules and regulations, and a society based on mosque teachings, with an approach of internal control (in the absence of external control), will train individuals more committed to social order and legal order, and with less cost, the outcome of that society will be more optimal and worthy.
