Abstract

This research examines the dual function of social aid in Indonesia as a social safety net and as a political tool for the upcoming 2024 Presidential Election. This research used Fairclough's model of critical discourse analysis through the policymaking process of social assistance programmes, including articles in the online media, social aid (PKH, BPNT, KIP, and others), and the dynamics of public opinion from January to June 2024. The analysis of the data showed that in election years, the social aid budgets are increased. The social assistance is therefore politically motivated. However, these programmes help to some extent reduce poverty and improve access to education and health. Because of the political motivation, the assistance programmes lose their main social purpose. From the perspective of the Islamic political economy, the social assistance programmes should be based on maṣlaḥah al-‘āmmah. The underlying principle is the equitable social welfare of the people and the politically unmotivated equitable social wealth. This research demands that these assistance programmes and services be legally and politically unmotivated, and social welfare programmes be legally focused on the redistribution and social justice of the people, be oriented to the long-term social welfare of politically and legally unmotivated social welfare programmes.

Abstract

Zakat is considered to be a critical Islamic social finance mechanism for helping alleviate poverty and achieving sustainable development goals in countries with Muslim populations. The purpose of this research is to examine the contribution of Zakat distribution towards realizing SDGs, particularly poverty reduction, in Indonesia and Malaysia using the qualitative research methodology that involves interviews of key players at BAZNAS (Indonesia), MAIS (Malaysia) and UiTM as well as document review of the organizations' institutional reports and scholarly literature. It has been found out that Zakat organizations work towards achieving SDG targets, namely eradication of poverty (SDG 1), reduced inequalities (SDG 10), and economic growth (SDG 8) through the implementation of different programs, which involve financial assistance, vocational training, and educational activities. For instance, BAZNAS in Indonesia uses technology in Zakat for entrepreneurship programs to target poor people and increase their economic independence. At the same time, MAIS in Malaysia focuses on education and healthcare to tackle structural problems related to socio-economic mobility. However, some limitations related to Zakat distribution include inefficiency in coordination, lack of transparency, and cultural resistance to modernization. The study suggests some recommendations for solving the aforementioned challenges, which include introduction of centralized.
