In addition, this article will also clarify the role and function of zakah in dealing with the problem of economic inequality. Economic inequality is characterized by uneven distribution of income and wealth and only revolves around a handful of people. This made the gap between rich and poor deepening. One of the factors causing the gap is the behavior of consumers who tend to pursue pure utility. So that it fosters greed in itself and increases negative behaviors such as hoarding property, and makes wealth not circulated in the community evenly. This study also identifies the impact of zakat on public consumption behavior which also has direct implications for income distribution. The results of the study show that utility in Islamic economics is a combination of two utilities. Worldly utilities that represent real satisfaction directly felt such as feeling full, happiness in the world, fulfilled their life needs. Also the ukhrawi utility is represented by an increase in faith and piety, and a reward that is expected to be obtained in the hereafter. Where zakah is able to increase the two types of utilities. This concept encourages rich Muslim communities to distribute their income through zakat instruments to the poor. So that the redistribution of income fairly can be realized through zakah, and in the end is able to realize equitable welfare in the community.

In addition, observations were also made by direct observation in the field. While the data analysis technique used in this study is qualitative analysis. Based on the research results obtained, it is known that community economic empowerment through pesantren can be built with a partnership model between pesantren, community, government and the private sector. Because pesantren is the closest Islamic educational institution to the community and has potential resources to be the pioneers of the economic empowerment of the people. The partnership can be carried out in several aspects such as employment, business opportunities, and the establishment of business entities or financial institutions. The partnership that exists between these four elements can make people more economically empowered and improve their welfare in a sustainable manner.
