In this research, the writer wants to describe the concept of distributive justice in Zakat. The author also wants to see how Asghar's process is formulating the idea. This research includes library research, which uses a qualitative approach. This study finds that distributive justice is the basis for building Islamic economics, and al-adl, al-ihsan, and al-qist are the keywords in distributive justice as universal values.
