چکیده
This research, using a descriptive-analytical method based on library studies and drawing upon verses from the Holy Quran and reliable religious sources, examines the role of self-knowledge in explaining the human sense of poverty and need for God as the Creator and ultimate cause of existence within the framework of Islamic teachings. The findings reveal that self-knowledge exposes human beings’ existential poverty in relation to God and identifies the true self—the divine soul—as immortal and bestowed by God, the source of fulfillment for all needs. Consequently, by granting primacy to the unseen realm, the soul, and one’s innate divine purity, one strengthens his connection with God and nurtures within oneself a profound sense of poverty and need for Him. Furthermore, by cultivating cognitive and spiritual stages of awareness, one reinforces the realization that he possesses nothing of his own and that God alone is his true refuge and source of strength. The results indicate that this sense of poverty and need for God enhances faith and spiritual connection with the Divine, ultimately leading to the attainment of “ḥayāt-i ṭayyibah” (good life).
