Abstract

Numerous national and international studies confirm the definite link between marginalization and social injury. Poverty and the concentration of the poor in these areas are the cause of all kinds of injuries and social deviations. In this study, the method of analyzing documents and criminal records in law enforcement centers has been used to investigate the relationship between poverty concentration in marginalized areas and crime in these areas. The sample size used includes 1825 files. In addition, the results of other studies have been used to supplement the research data. In the section of explanation and solution, an attempt has been made to explain the relationship between poverty and social injuries based on the verses and narrations of logic. Findings show that the suburbs of Khorramabad are the main centers of crime and all kinds of social injuries, especially theft and addiction. According to verses and hadiths, poverty facilitates pessimism, cynicism, social isolation, humiliation and modesty in individuals. An important part of relief programs should focus on solving these psychological and social problems.
