Abstract:
This study aims to highlight the guidance of the Holy Qur’an in emphasizing what benefits others in times of dire need, and to explain the wisdom of the impact of societal cohesion and the benefit that accrues to all members of society. It highlights the Holy Qur’an’s treatment of how to overcome severe famine that a society may face. It also motivates specialized researchers to clarify the obstacles to achieving benefit from the Qur’an. The methodology used is inductive, analytical, and deductive. The research includes two sections, the first of which talks about developing moral awareness in physical giving at times of extreme need, and the second deals with developing moral awareness in moral giving at times of such time. The study concluded with several results, including: The Quran contains numerous insights that emphasize moral awareness, reflected in a Muslim's empathy towards fellow Muslims within society. Among the most important qualities a Muslim society should possess are ethical values that strengthen and unify it.  The Quran encourages believers to give both materially and spiritually, instilling in Muslims a sense of purpose in making beneficial contributions to other.
