The natural desire of humans to have a meaningful view of the surrounding world and to escape from emptiness has caused religion to create a new and meaningful attitude to life as a factor in giving meaning to life. This approach, by presenting an emerging interpretation of man and religion, as well as the relationship between the two, seeks to understand man and the dimensions of religion, from vision and beliefs to behavior, habits, and religious customs. Religious rituals, as a factor for communication and unity of people have a decisive role in the social-cultural-identity structure. Surah Mubarakah Hajj, as the focus of Quranic rituals, includes culturally creating religious propositions in different dimensions such as politics, economy, culture, etc., each of which has its roots in the revelations and contents of the verses. Based on this importance, the current research aims to extract the cultural teachings of the rituals, with the analytical-descriptive method and relying on the inferential approach, it has tried to analyze the functionality of the cultural teachings of this surah and to explain the functional comparison of the rituals of Hajj with the era of Jahiliya. The findings of the research indicated that in Surah Hajj, we are faced with the conceptual propositions of correcting the harms and cultural deviations of rituals, and at the head of these reforms, restoring piety as a union of worldliness and religion to ritual has been taken into consideration.
