Malaysia Madani was introduced by YAB Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim as the new slogan of the Government of Malaysia. The concept of Malaysia Madani consists of six policy pillars, namely Sustainability, Well-being, Creativity, Respect, Confidence, and Courtesy. There are three main priorities to be achieved with the concept of "Malaysia Madani", namely eradicating poverty, renovating the economy, and restoring and generating the economy. Collectively, this framework will lay the foundation for creating a civil, advanced, skilled, and inclusive society (Ibrahim, 2022). On 27 July, the Prime Minister officiated the launch of the Madani Economy with the theme Empowering the People. This study aims to analyze the approach of the Quran and Sunnah in realizing the well-being of the ummah. This study will use a qualitative method to analyze the verses of the Quran and Sunnah related to the approach of the Quran and Sunnah in empowering the ummah. The findings of the study show that the Quran and Sunnah have put in place several approaches to empower the ummah's economy and ensure their well-being. Among these approaches are, Islam obliges humans to work and endeavor, Islam recognizes the ownership of individual property, Islam stipulates the right to own public property, Islam stipulates several shari'a to achieve economic balance, Islam obliges to pay zakat and Islam obliges its people to help each other. The results of this study are expected to help the government achieve the goal of Empowering the People through the Madani Economy framework.
