الْجُوعِ hunger
This abstract noun for hunger is governed by the preposding 'from/because-of', which puts it in the post-preposition form and frames it as the cause of the action. Arabic often expresses 'out of hunger' with this bare preposition plus noun, no extra machinery. The noun being abstract, not a countable object, is why it reads as the state driving the behaviour.
