Abstract

Population growth in the country has been declining in recent years and forecasts show that in the not too distant future, Iran will face the phenomenon of aging and a little further away with a further decline in population growth and population decline. This in itself can have many negative consequences for the country. To prevent these harmful consequences, it is necessary for social policy makers to implement appropriate programs to get out of this harmful situation in order to maintain the reliability and dynamism of the population. This article believes that the way out of this situation is to revive the Islamic-Iranian way of life based on the principles and values of religion and indigenous culture. Therefore, it has tried to provide a cultural model for increasing fertility, based on religious thought. The finding suggests that a religious model at three levels of beliefs, values and norms by shaping behaviors, can help increase fertility. The research method is descriptive and analytical in the data collection stage and descriptive and analytical in the processing stage
