Abstract

This study explores the strategic partnership between zakat institutions and the government in realizing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Indonesia. As the largest Muslim-populated country, Indonesia holds significant zakat potential that, if effectively managed, can serve as a powerful instrument for poverty alleviation, social welfare, and inclusive development. The research employed a qualitative library study, critically examining legislation, institutional reports, and relevant scholarly works to analyze the synergy between zakat management bodies and government agencies. The findings reveal that zakat programs implemented by BAZNAS and various Lembaga Amil Zakat demonstrate tangible contributions to key SDGs, particularly in eradicating poverty, improving health, ensuring access to quality education, and promoting decent work and economic growth. Nonetheless, challenges persist, including fragmented data, limited policy harmonization, and insufficient integration of zakat into national and regional development planning. The study emphasizes the importance of digital transformation, good governance, and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles in strengthening accountability and expanding the impact of zakat programs. It concludes that an ideal partnership model requires national data integration, continuous policy coordination, and aligned performance indicators between zakat institutions and government. Strengthening such collaboration is crucial for positioning zakat as a strategic instrument in achieving inclusive and sustainable development in Indonesia.
