For decades, social health has been one of the issues that has attracted the attention of sociologists. Since the creation of the universe, God has directed mans attention towards the issue of social health and the society they live in by setting rules and regulations. Society is in dire need of achieving health in all aspects so that a person can grow and prosper in their living environment to contribute to security and welfare of the society thanks to a healthy social environment. In order to achieve welfare, human beings need collective and social work that can meet their material and spiritual needs through work and activity in society. And in order to meet these needs, a healthy and calm environment is needed. A proper economic cycle behavior has a great impact on the society’s social behavior. Man can meet their needs and use their own income if there is fair distribution of wealth and economic prosperity and if poverty is eradicated. By paying Khums and Zakat, social gaps are filled and thanks to the security created as a result of based on justice economic system, the individuals in the society can meet each others living and economic needs together and they can live a happy and a healthy life in greater context. The fair distribution of wealth and economic welfare, and a healthy production and sale of products cycle all contribute to healthy economic behavior in society. In Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi’s Tafsir Nemooneh, different dimensions of a Muslims behavior in the society and how the Islamic society looks like is explained. This paper invokes Quranic verses that touch upon the issue of economic behavior in a way that help improve social health in society in all aspects of life discussed in the book Tafsir Nemooneh.
