This study analyzes the effect of zakat distribution on the welfare of mustahik in Gresik Regency. Using a quantitative approach with 50 mustahik recipients of BAZNAS Gresik, primary data from welfare questionnaires (variable Y) were combined with secondary data on zakat distribution (variable X). Simple linear regression (Y = a + bX ) yielded Y = 22,560 + 7,260X with R² = 0.944 and t-statistic = 28,478 (p < 0.05), confirming that zakat distribution has a significant positive effect on mustahik welfare in Gresik Regency.
