Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of economic growth and poverty rate on outstanding zakat in Indonesia. The research employs a quantitative descriptive approach using panel data collected from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) and the National Zakat Agency (BAZNAS) covering the period from 2010 to 2024. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression with the aid of EViews software. The results reveal that the poverty rate has a negative and significant effect on outstanding zakat in Indonesia, while economic growth shows no significant influence. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.4896 indicates that nearly half of the variation in outstanding zakat can be explained by changes in the poverty rate. Simultaneously, the F-test results indicate that the overall model is significant (F-statistic = 12.73; Prob(F) = 0.000154 < 0.05). However, the partial test shows that only the poverty rate variable is statistically significant (p = 0.0001), whereas economic growth is not significant (p = 0.3932). The poverty rate coefficient is negative (-3.09E+11), implying that a decrease in poverty tends to increase outstanding zakat. Meanwhile, economic growth does not exhibit a significant relationship, suggesting that GDP growth does not automatically lead to an increase in zakat disbursement. The negative relationship indicates that as poverty decreases, outstanding zakat rises; conversely, when poverty increases, zakat funds are distributed more quickly to the mustahiq (beneficiaries), resulting in a lower remaining zakat balance. In other words, these findings reflect a responsive and linear zakat distribution mechanism aligned with the socioeconomic conditions of society.

Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a strategic role in supporting regional economic development, including in the advancement of halal tourism in Aceh. Banda Aceh, as the center of economic and religious tourism activities, holds great potential to become a model of a halal tourism city based on Islamic values. However, this potential has not been fully optimized due to various challenges in strengthening the capacity and halal certification of MSME actors. This study aims to analyze the development strategies of MSMEs in supporting the halal tourism sector in Banda Aceh City. The research employs a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis methods. Data were collected through interviews with several relevant parties, including MSME actors in Banda Aceh and Aceh Besar, the Aceh Office of Cooperatives and MSMEs, the LPPOM-MPU Aceh, and the Aceh Department of Culture and Tourism. Secondary data were obtained through library research from various literature sources, media, and academic journals. The results indicate that strengthening the halal tourism sector largely depends on the active role of MSMEs in providing high-quality halal products. The strategies that need to be implemented include enhancing halal literacy and education, accelerating the halal certification process, establishing institutional synergy, expanding market access and product digitalization, and facilitating access to Sharia-based financing. The implementation of these strategies is expected to position Banda Aceh as a leading halal tourism destination while strengthening the community's economy based on Islamic principles.
