Abstract

Throughout history, especially in the present age, the material and physical needs of man have been more supported and, on the contrary, his spiritual needs, which are the most important aspect, have been neglected and forgotten. If a person neglects the spiritual dimension of his existence and forgets his existential truth and originality, he has suffered from spiritual poverty. Knowing the issue of spiritual poverty and being aware of its causes causes a person to seriously confront it and its shortcomings in this important matter, in addition to threatening the human body, also threatens his soul and psyche. For this purpose, the present article, using a descriptive-analytical method and relying on verse 19 of Surah Al-Hashr, while explaining the components of spiritual poverty, has dealt with its most important causes. Research findings indicate that the most important components of spiritual poverty are: self-discovery, godlessness, rationalism, and practical ignorance and the causes of spiritual poverty are: negligence, wonder and selfishness, dependence on the world, an unhealthy environment, and the devil.
