Synopsis: Poverty remains one of the most persistent and multidimensional challenges confronting humanity. Beyond the deprivation of income, poverty entails the erosion of dignity, limited access to opportunities, social exclusion, and structural inequality. From an Islamic economic perspective, poverty is not merely an economic condition but also a moral concern that calls for justice, compassion, and institutional responsibility. The Qur’anic and Prophetic teachings place strong emphasis on social equity, wealth redistribution, and the protection of vulnerable groups, making poverty alleviation a central objective of Islamic economic thought and closely aligned with the aspirations of Sustainable Development Goal 1.
