Abstract:
This study examines the contribution of zakat and waqf to economic growth and poverty alleviation in Makassar. Zakat and waqf, as social finance instruments in Islam, have significant potential to redistribute wealth and improve people's welfare. Through a qualitative approach, data were collected through interviews, group discussions, observations, and documentation studies. The results show that zakat plays a role in increasing purchasing power, creating jobs, and providing access to education and health services. Meanwhile, waqf contributes to infrastructure development and community empowerment. Despite challenges in management and public understanding, recommendations to improve transparency, collaboration, and education are expected to maximize the positive impact of these two instruments. This research confirms the importance of zakat and waqf management strategies to promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth in Makassar.
