Introduction
 Religion is considered one of the basic pillars of social life all over the world and in our country. However, theories have been proposed regarding the diminution of the presence and role of religion in today's world and, as a result, religiosity among people. For example, according to the "de-religion" theory of the Enlightenment era philosophers, religion used to dominate society and was the uncontested claimant in the field of culture and society; But with the scientific maturity of modern man in the era of growth and prosperity of rationality, there is no longer any justification for the continued presence of religion in society. Meanwhile, religiosity has become a kind of challenge for them. Today, looking at the level of society, it is possible to see less participation of young people in religious rituals, reluctance to learn religious teachings, less importance of religious issues, and less presence of young people in religious places and mosques than in the past. Such conditions may be a sign of the weakening of religiosity in the society; However, such a conclusion cannot be drawn for sure, and in the meantime, it is the type of people's view and their perception of the way of religion that determines whether the stated premises include such a conclusion or not. Considering that young groups are considered as the main group in creating and shaping subcultures and specific lifestyles in modern societies. Therefore, it is very important to understand and identify the understanding of the youth of this generation about religiosity, as well as to identify the challenges of religiosity from their point of view and the solutions they have in mind for this problem, and it plays an important role in the continuation of the health of the society, and the view of the youth of this generation defines the category of religion and the way of religiosity and in addition, it helps the practitioners to adopt suitable methods for promoting and teaching religiosity in the society according to the type of view, needs and suggestions of the youth and prevent its presence in the society from diminishing To prevent among them.

Discussion and Result

Conclusion
The results showed that religiosity is not a one-dimensional thing; Rather, people need to have its characteristics in the field of belief and action and in the personal and social dimensions. In this regard, the challenges in the path of religiosity in the society are multi-dimensional challenges that cannot be rooted out by simply addressing one of these dimensions; Rather, it is necessary, in addition to paying attention to the conditions of the society, to pay attention to the mentality of people and educate and direct it. In fact, challenges originate from people's environment and educational conditions, and are influenced by people's attitudes and inner thoughts; Therefore, to find the root of these challenges, it is necessary to pay attention to both the intrapersonal and extrapersonal areas of people. Therefore, to overcome these challenges, it is necessary to use new methods that suit the needs of today's generation instead of using old educational methods that were based on imitation and coercion in some cases. Therefore, religious education and promotion of religiosity must be carried out by using reason and logic and explaining religious matters in detail along with explaining their benefits, and provide the basis for people to be attracted to religion and religious education, and this is due to an internal need in They become The analysis of the solutions also shows that instead of providing methods for teaching religious affairs, the student teachers emphasize more on creating a foundation for the acceptance of religion, so that religiosity turns from an external matter to an internal and self-willed matter; Therefore, it is suggested to revise the methods of religious promotion and education and change the method of religious education from external education to self-education.
