The simplest way to connect to WiFi is using the raspi-config tool:

maybe you forgot to set the locale settings (country) (in raspi-config) ? This is needed for the Wifi setup.

Have you any lines in your logs where any Wifi connection error is shown?

My experience is that if you use the Raspberry Pi SD card image with pre-installed Z-Way you have to choose a special way to get wifi working. It seems that the network configuration is done in a different way from the normal Raspberry Pi OS (previously called Raspbian) image which you get at raspberrypi.com. The razberry-image has a directory /etc/conf.d in which are files and symbolic links starting with "netif". "netif.wlan0" is linked to ".net.wlan0.ap" (which looks to me that the wifi connetion is configured as access point), but I am not an expert in this it is just a guess. I changed the link from ".net.wlan0.ap" to ".netif.wlan0.client". After that the wifi connection worked, but remote access didn't work. I decided not to play around any longer and used the normal Raspberry Pi OS image from raspberrypi.com and after configuring it I installed Z-Way as described on the page https://z-wave.me/z-way/download-z-way/ ("First installation when Raspberry Pi is already up und running").

Maybe this helps you to find a way to get your wifi working. If you get wifi working with the razberry-image it would be interesting if you post how you did it.

I added locale also but didn't success !! I tried many ways but didn’t work. In my opinion I think with z-wave.me OS wifi is not working ??

Do you think when I boot raspberry pi OS and then setup wifi and then. go for z-wave.me installation it will work ?
and also can I do it to connect first via ethernet cable and then go to setup wifi ?

Yes, this is a standard installation way.
If you connect at first via ethernet the Wifi setup is easy (with monitor).
Without monitor you need to enable SSH at first:
