Among the issues raised about population is the necessity of its increase or decrease. Foundations, especially anthropological foundations, play a role in formulating the population theory. One of the existential dimensions of man is power. The question is whether or not, from the perspective of the Quran, the desire for power, as an innate or instinctive thing, causes population growth. Does population growth lead to national authority? Does population growth have an impact on increasing national power and strength? We will examine the Quranic perspective on this issue. The aim of the research is to lay the groundwork and contribute to the authority of society by discovering the Quranic perspective on encouraging people to have children. Data is collected through documentary methods and processed using the descriptive and analytical method. In the exploratory stage of the study, verses have been used through literal and conceptual search, and verses with different implications have been collected. The research findings indicate that in the Quranic view, the innate desire for power causes humans to have many children. One of the factors of power in society is human power. With the increase of human power, national authority increases, and abundant, active, efficient youth play a significant role in progress, security and national power. From the Quranic perspective, increasing the quality of the population creates authority.
