This study aims to analyze the zakat fund management strategy of the National Zakat Agency (BAZNAS) of Labuhanbatu Regency in addressing social disparities in Rantau Prapat. This research method used a descriptive qualitative approach, with data obtained through interviews, observation, and documentation. The results indicate that BAZNAS implements a consumptive and productive zakat distribution strategy, prioritizing the poor and needy. The data collection system is hierarchical to ensure accurate targeting. Despite facing various challenges such as limited funding, data validity, and low zakat literacy, BAZNAS continues to strive to improve program effectiveness through five main areas: economics, education, health, da'wah, and humanitarianism. This strategy contributes to poverty alleviation and sustainable improvement of community welfare.
