خلاصة:
The two-way relationship between religion and religiosity with moral commitment in various fields has been widely discussed. Although recent discussions have tended towards the independence of these two fields from each other, the prevailing belief is that religiosity supports the moral sphere. Functionalist sociologists also largely believe that the level of religiosity has a positive impact on individuals' moral behavior, and moral commitment, through better regulation of social relations, respect for the rights of others, and reciprocal action based on understanding others, becomes possible. This article seeks to empirically examine the relationship between religiosity and moral commitment with a sample of 372 students from Kharazmi University. The study was survey-based and the data collection tool was a questionnaire. Based on the findings, religiosity has a positive relationship with moral commitment; although this relationship is seen less in the social dimension of morality. No significant difference is observed among the dimensions of religiosity and their connection to moral commitment. The implications of these findings are analyzed in the article.

Studying the effect of religiosity on moral commitment in a student population 2 Seyyed Hossein Serajzadeh 1 * Farshid Rahimi Abstract The two-way relationship between religion and religiosity with moral commitment in various fields has been widely discussed.
Functionalist sociologists also generally believe that the level of religiosity has a positive effect on the moral behavior of individuals, and moral commitment, through better regulation of social relations, respect for the rights of others, and reciprocal action based on mutual understanding, is achieved.
This situation made reflection and a return to the subject of the relationship between religion and morality necessary in the theoretical field, because one could argue that the modern human, by losing their support, is living in a kind of existential crisis, and this issue can have major effects; in this regard, indifference toward oneself, others, and the fate of society can be mentioned.
The assumption that religion and morality only cover one dimension of human behavior in empirical matters, where individuals differ only according to its degree and not based on related indicators, is a simplistic view.
In Iran, no research has been conducted specifically on the subject of religiosity and morality, but below, several related foreign studies are mentioned: - "Three Generations of Moral Thinking in Scandinavia: What Role Does Religion Play?" is the title of an article presented by Pal Ketil Bødtker (2005).
