Sociology of Dimensions of Religiosity in Quranic Teachings

The aim of this article is to extract dimensions of religiosity in Quranic verses which is made possible by analyzing the qualitative contents and Grounded theory. Findings show that faith and good deeds are two fundamental dimensions of religiosity and by them man gets promoted from potentiality to actuality or from deficiency to perfection. By internalizing the theoretical dimensions of religion, the formed faith appears and accordingly the second dimension of religiosity namely good deeds will appear. Although, there is a close and interdependent relationship between faith and good deeds, faith is constantly prior to it, because the good deeds are the result of faith. Due to this bond, if faith forms, the good deeds certainly will appear only from faith. On this basis, man is a creature with authority and the right to choose who is responsible for his development by two dimensions of faith and good deeds.
