Abstract

Women significantly contribute to the national economy through their Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) roles. However, they face inadequate support from government and private sectors in accessing formal financial services. This research addresses the gap in gender-inclusive financial support by exploring the potential of productive Zakat within the framework of Sharia Economic Law in Indonesia and social fiqh. The study aims to evaluate how productive Zakat can mitigate gender inequality and promote economic inclusion for women. A qualitative methodology with a normative approach was employed to address this issue, utilizing the social fiqh paradigm for analysis. As a legal product, the findings reveal that fiqh evolves with societal changes. Social realities, such as the discrimination women face in accessing financial resources, necessitate the adaptive allocation of Zakat. Precisely, dedicating Zakat to women reflects their unique economic challenges and highlights the need for specialized management structures to distribute productive Zakat effectively. This study contributes to the existing literature by demonstrating the practical application of Sharia Economic Law in Indonesia and social fiqh in addressing contemporary gender disparities in economic participation. The novelty lies in proposing a structured and professional management system for productive Zakat to empower women, fostering economic inclusivity.

Abstract

The analysis report of the National Fiscal Policy Agency for December 2022 stated, currently, women in Indonesia will make up around 49.2 percent of the total population in Indonesia in 2021. 53.6 percent of them are of productive age. Meanwhile, women's access to financing from formal financial institutions for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) owned by women is currently only around 27 percent. So we need another alternative to providing business opportunities for women. Indonesia Zakat Outlook 2021 mentioned the potential for zakat to reach IDR 327.6 trillion. Therefore, the distribution of zakat has the potential to support the achievement of gender equality and women's empowerment if managed properly. LAZNAS Rumah Zakat, since 2019, has had a female entrepreneur fund the program through productive zakat. Therefore, it is interesting to study the mechanisms and impacts of the utilization of zakat on female beneficiaries. The research that researchers will do uses qualitative research methods that use primary sources in the form of final program reports from Rumah Zakat. The results of the research show that, through the women's entrepreneurship funding program, which consists of cash assistance and technical assistance, it has a positive impact on beneficiary women, especially technical assistance, which has proven to be able to increase the number of unpaid workers with lots of family participation. In addition, this program has been proven to increase the profits of the majority of entrepreneurs. So that the ideals of productive zakat are the long-term welfare of beneficiary women, turning them into muzakki has great potential to be achieved through the Women's Entrepreneurial Funding program by Rumah Zakat.

Abstract

Although Indonesia’s legal framework recognizes indigenous religions and upholds gender equality, these principles remain largely unrealized for Marapu women due to the intersection of patriarchal customary systems and state institutional biases. This study explores the persistence of gender inequality among Marapu women.  Employing an empirical socio-legal approach, data were collected through literature review and field research, including in-depth interviews and observations across four regencies of Sumba Island: East, Central, West, and Southwest Sumba. Informants included representatives from government agencies, NGOs, and Marapu community leaders. Findings indicate that while Marapu cosmology symbolically recognizes gender dualism, its social practice sustains male authority in ritual leadership, inheritance, and decision-making. State institutions, through religious and administrative structures, indirectly perpetuate these inequalities by privileging formal religions and patriarchal norms. The study concludes that promoting gender justice for Marapu women requires contextual reforms that integrate cultural reinterpretation, community participation, and inclusive policy frameworks grounded in feminist legal pluralism. [Meskipun kerangka hukum Indonesia telah mengakui keberadaan agama-agama leluhur serta menegaskan prinsip kesetaraan gender, realitasnya prinsip tersebut belum sepenuhnya terwujud bagi perempuan Marapu. Hal ini disebabkan oleh persinggungan antara sistem adat yang patriarkal dengan bias kelembagaan negara yang turut memperkuat posisi subordinat perempuan. Penelitian ini mengkaji ketimpangan gender yang dialami oleh perempuan Marapu penghayat kepercayaan di Sumba. Data diperoleh melalui studi pustaka dan penelitian lapangan yang mencakup wawancara mendalam serta observasi di empat kabupaten di Pulau Sumba: Sumba Timur, Sumba Tengah, Sumba Barat, dan Sumba Barat Daya. Informan terdiri atas perwakilan lembaga pemerintah, organisasi non-pemerintah, serta tokoh dan pemimpin komunitas Marapu. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun kosmologi Marapu secara simbolik mengakui dualisme gender, praktik sosialnya tetap mempertahankan dominasi laki-laki dalam kepemimpinan ritual, hak waris, dan pengambilan keputusan. Sementara itu, institusi negara melalui struktur keagamaan dan administrasi turut memperkuat ketimpangan ini dengan memprioritaskan agama formal dan norma patriarkal. Hasil temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa keadilan gender bagi perempuan Marapu memerlukan reformasi kontekstual melalui reinterpretasi nilai adat, partisipasi komunitas, serta kebijakan inklusif yang berlandaskan pada pluralisme hukum feminis.]
