Islam has always commanded its followers to acquire material (acceptable and legitimate) gifts. This study was conducted to investigate the religiosity and economic success of the wealthy in Tehran. The approach of Weber, Rodinson and Jamo has been used as a theoretical approach. The study population is all wealthy people living in Tehran. The sampling method was snowball. The data collection tool was in-depth individual interviews. A sample size of 15 people was selected, which was possible based on theoretical saturation criteria. The collected data were analyzed using content analysis coding. Based on this, 524 open and primary codes, 52 sub-categories and 8 main categories were extracted, which we classified into two categories of definite and fixed categories and relative and sensitive categories. The findings show that the studied religious people express their religiosity in "Wafiq" meaning adherence to religion, economy and social man, denial of symbolic self-egalitarianism, network support, understanding of position (definite categories), network identity ، Poverty, voluntary restraint, continuous evaluation / performance of activities (relative and sensitive categories) and therefore reproduce their economic success within the framework of a kind of benevolent rationality. The results show that religious people, by rejecting cost / utilitarian relations and avoiding economic man, manifest themselves as a kind of religious / social man whose criterion is benevolent rationality and bill of choice.
