Abstract
According to the Qur'an, moral motivations are the sources of all moral behaviors by providing a background for practicing moral virtues and avoiding vices, and forming a civil and religious society. At different historical times, different religions and schools have claimed to provide human growth and happiness by presenting several plans and programs. Islam and especially the Holy Qur'an also claim to have responded to this innate human request; therefore, it seems necessary to address this issue. In this regard, the researcher has explained the rational bases of moral motivations in light of the verses of the Holy Quran with descriptive and analytical methods. The results of this research show the multiplicity of human beings' bases towards moral motivation. Some verses are related to the nature and essential truth of the human soul, and other verses are related to love and friendship towards God. If a person moves according to his spiritual nature, he arranges his life according to God's wishes; but if it moves against it and in line with the physical essence, it causes the fall of moral motives due to not using reason
