British sociologist "Catherine Hakim" first expressed the term sexual capital and its types in social life and the balance between men and women. In 2011, he presented his theory and opinions in the book "Sweet Money, the Power of Sexual Capital". Her theory is one of the newest and newest theories of contemporary sociology. Before V. Pierre Bourdieu, the French sociologist believed that human capital is not only movable and immovable property. In addition to economic capital, we also have cultural and social capital. Taking advantage of him, Catherine Hakim called the fourth capital, sexual capital. According to Hakim; This capital has six indicators and these components can be more in many cultures. Since literature plays a significant role in reflecting the culture of any society and its thoughts and beliefs, fictional literature is no exception to these rules. Based on this principle, in this research, by using the descriptive-analytical method and using library sources, the components of sexual capital in the novel "Sabaya Sanja" by Salim Barkat, a Syrian writer, have been investigated and analyzed. The result of this research has shown that the components of beauty and sexual attractiveness and the way of appearing in the society for women, and the social component and vitality for men have been more reflected in this novel, and also the author has not raised erotic relations and related issues in the novel.
