Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of zakat fund distribution in empowering the poor in Indonesia based on data from the 2023 National Zakat Management Report (LPZN) from BAZNAS. The method used is quantitative descriptive with secondary data covering zakat collection and distribution, distribution based on program areas and asnaf, and the number of mustahik who have escaped poverty. The results show that the effectiveness of zakat distribution is 96.53%, but the impact on poverty alleviation is still low, with only 0.02% of mustahik successfully escaping poverty. Most of the funds were used for consumptive activities, while the productive economic sector only received 0.70%. A shift in the zakat distribution strategy towards productive programs is needed so that zakat can play a greater role in improving the welfare of the community.
