Keywords: Funds; Zakat; SDGs; Poverty INTRODUCTION The Islamic economy has accomplished global growth which completed in many appearances, both in the commercial sector such as banking and in the areas of social investment such as zakat, infaq, alms and endowments. Zakat is one of the sectors that have potential funding resources for achieving SDGs. Judging from the type of program AZJAF (e-ISSN: 2716-6643) Vol.1 No. 1 (2020) Page 25
  2. carried out , zakat has a relationship with the SDGs achievement goals—for example, alleviation of poverty and hunger, good health and so on. SDGs often referred to as the Sustainable Development Goals, which are a platform for acting to alleviate poverty, protect the earth and ensure that all people can feel peace and prosperity. Eradicating poverty and inequality is a present challenge that the SDGs want to overcome. Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) itself is a continuation of the previous platform of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), which was designed by the United Nations and agreed upon by 193 countries. SDGs are applied with universal principles, integrity and inclusive to ensure that all parties can involve without exception, with the name No One Left Behind. The SDGs have 17 goals and 169 achievement targets, which expected to realize in 2030. SDGs, which are often called the Sustainable Development Goals, is a platform for acting to alleviate poverty, protect the earth and ensure that all people can feel peace and prosperity. Points from 17 primary SDGs objectives include : 1. No Poverty 2. Zero Hunger 3. Good Health and Well-being 4. Quality Education 5. Gender Equality 6. Clean Water and Sanitation 7. Affordable and Clean Energy 8. Decent Work and Economic Growth 9. Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure 10. Reducing Inequality 11. Sustainable Cities and Communities 12. Responsible Consumption and Production 13. Climate Action 14. Life Below Water 15. Life on Land 16. Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions 17. Partnerships for the Goals Zakat is the distribution of wealth by sufficient Muslims following religious provisions to be given to those who are more in need. As for the recipients of zakat namely the needy, poor, amil, converts, slaves of people who are in debt, fisabilillah (who fight in the way of Allah), and Ibn Sabil (who is on his way). The purpose of zakat is to provide services, AZJAF (e-ISSN: 2716-6643) Vol.1 No. 1 (2020) Page 26
  3. benefits and improve welfare for the recipients . It can say that zakat is a vital development instrument for the country. Zakat is one of the pillars of Islam as well as a mandatory instrument for Muslims in the process of servitude and devotion to Allah SWT, which has implications in the social and economic sphere of society. Zakat can see as one of the resources and sources of funding in matters which included in the 8 Ashnaf, as stipulated in the Al-Quran especially the AtTaubah verse 60 (9:60). Therefore, zakat can consider as a potential resource and source of funds in programs that carried out in the hope that it can have a positive impact and change for those who receive it, particularly in the context of poverty alleviation. The amount of the collection of Zakat, Infaq, and Alms funds nationally in 2019 reached Rp 1.8 trillion and distribution reached Rp. 1 trillion. As illustrated in the graph as follows: 350,000,000,000 300,000,000,000 250,000,000,000 200,000,000,000 150,000,000,000 100,000,000,000 50,000,000,000 0 COLLECTION 2019 BAZNAS DISTRIBUTION 2019 BAZNAS Source : Baznas Republic of Indonesia Figure 1: Collection and Distribution Baznas 2019 (in rupiah) Figure 1 shows the amount of the collection of Zakat, Infaq, and Alms funds nationally in 2019 reached Rp 1.8 trillion and distribution reached Rp. 1 trillion.

The distribution of Zakat funds nationally has more or less targeted 6,806,175 souls. From the various collection and distribution activities with their variations, the work of zakat including its management organizations strives to achieve the goals of zakat which is to prosper and provide justice for the community, AZJAF (e-ISSN: 2716-6643) Vol.1 No. 1 (2020) Page 27

Management of zakat generally carried out through programs and activities, which if grouped into fields, in the form of wasteful assistance / direct assistance programs, educational programs, health programs, community empowerment programs and the community economy, and emergency programs etc. Poor Population (million inhabitants) 28.71 28.6 28.51 27.76 27.73 26.58 25.67 24.79 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 Source: Central Bureau of Statistics (2019) Figure 2: Poor Population in Indonesia 2012-2019 When linked to poverty levels in Indonesia, Zakat can play a significant role in poverty alleviation. The number of poor people in Indonesia in September 2019 was 24.79 million. As shown in figure 2.0 the poverty rate is 9.22%. The government disbursed a social protection fund of Rp 110 trillion to overcome the effects of the coronavirus pandemic (Covid-19), especially for the poor. Of the total Rp 110 trillion, amounting to Rp 65 trillion is for additional social safety networks. The details are Rp. 8.3 trillion for 10 million Beneficiary Families (KPM), the Hope Family Program (PKH), Rp. 10.9 trillion for basic food needs for 20 million KPM, and Rp.10 trillion for pre-work cards. (Read Budget Rp.110 Trillion for Social Protection as a result of Covid-19) There are also discounts on electricity tariffs for subsidized 450 and 900 VA customers of Rp 3.5 trillion, housing incentives for low-income people of Rp 1.5 trillion, and Rp 30.8 trillion for other programs. Studies on the relevance and priority of the role of Zakat to the SDGs are still relatively small. Therefore, it is imperative to conduct this study so that it can be a reference in seeing the relationship between the role and position of Zakat on SDGs that are considered equal and can create good synergies for global development. That is also important to explore AZJAF (e-ISSN: 2716-6643) Vol.1 No. 1 (2020) Page 28
  5. more specifically how this study can describe the relevance of recommendations , as well as prioritize or evaluate zakat goals for SDGs directly in its implementation. Thus, Zakat can evaluate performance and ensure that it can be one indicator for the completion of the SDGs goals globally, especially in Indonesia. LITERATURE REVIEW Zakat is an essential institution in an Islamic economic framework for poverty alleviation and economic welfare. The poverty rate is generally higher in Muslim majority countries, a significant number of those located in Asia and Africa. Food insecurity and hunger is also a considerable problem in Muslim majority countries. Due to the lack of a sustainable source of the subsistent level of income, the Muslim population faces heightened poverty. One of the primary goals of the future development plan is to end poverty and hunger. Salman Ahmed Shaikh and Abdul Ghafar Ismail (2017) analyze broader intergovernmental Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to encourage broad-based development action that includes economic development, human development and environmental sustainability. There are 17 general goals in which several targets had set which are to be achieved by 2030. We find that in at least seven goals, the institution of Zakat is highly essential, especially in the Muslim majority countries. Since the goals are ambitious and the time-frame set for these goals is short, all-encompassing efforts must undertake involving all sorts of institutions to make a gigantic leap forward. It is especially crucial for countries that are much behind the targets and need considerable effort and resources to pull themselves up to meet the objectives. Sekar Panuluh and Meila Riskia Fitri in their paper entitled development of the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Indonesia September 2015September 2016, citing that Indonesia is increasing better progress in terms of timeliness and participatory processes. The challenges faced by implementing SDGs do not only address two matters. In terms of substance, SDGs negotiation to eliminate the negation component of complete development is the work that is mostly utopia. Admittedly in phases of the process of implementing SDGs on the national level, they still accept jobs in the country such as in receiving data of parties outside the government, including also the process from acquiring it. This need not need to discuss because it must consider the improvements required for national development until 2030. The active role of the government has become the principal capital for the implementation and achievement of SDGs in Indonesia. Furthermore, Straightening out the Just Development Orientation concluded that the goal of sustainable development is not something that is taken for granted which necessarily AZJAF (e-ISSN: 2716-6643) Vol.1 No. 1 (2020) Page 29
  6. must follow without ever thinking about how its impact and contribution to many people . In essence, the process of sustainable development based on three components, namely social, environmental and economic interconnected. Achieving the SDGs goals and targets that will take effect from 2015 and will target to achieve in 2030 is not an easy task and requires serious efforts from the government. Besides, severe efforts from the government are not enough if there is no support from various parties who support the implementation of these goals. The participation of multiple parties needed to make a positive contribution to sustainable development. The government needs to embrace other parties such as civil society organizations (NGOs), communities, businesses, to young people in participating and contributing according to their respective capabilities. Because the main objective of the initiation of sustainable development is how development that brings prosperity can maintain for the future or future generations. (Fardan.2015). However, the goal development goal's (SDG'S) is a document that will become a reference in the framework of developing and negotiating countries in the world. Where The concept of SDGs is continuing the idea of MDGs which ended in 2015, MDGs and SDGs have the same goals and similarities. Namely, SDG'S advance the noble ideals of the MDGs who want to tackle hunger and poverty in the world. These SDGs are not separate from the MDGs, and the SDGs are a form of refinement of the MDGs. SDGs are a continuation of what has built on the MDGs (Millennium Development Goals). SDG's has five foundations, namely human, planet, prosperity, peace, and partnership that want to achieve three noble goals in 2030 in the form of ending poverty, achieving equality and overcoming climate change. (Wahyuningsih, 2017). SDGs with zakat is in a different context but have the same goal, namely regarding poverty and hunger. Meanwhile, in the 2019 Zakat Outlook, zakat is dedicated to addressing obstacles that the SDGs also want to solve. Notwithstanding, Indonesia can also initiate and campaign for the zakat movement in Islamic countries to be actively connected and be able to strive in the attainment of the SDGs. The primary goal of the SDGs is to reduce poverty in any form and end hunger, while on the other hand zakat from the muzakki is intended to distribute to the poor and destitute. This can be said to be a tit for tat, why? Because Indonesia, which is one of the United Nations member states, is well known in the world, with the most Muslim population, it can be the first country that can achieve or complete the SDGs in terms of poverty and hunger. Indonesia can be said to be a country that has the most critical opportunity to realize the SDGs goals so that the government must be able to advertise information to the community so that they are knowledgeable of the importance of zakat for poverty alleviation. Besides, amil zakat institutions must be better in terms of management and distribution and more comprehensive. Also, more extensive and more AZJAF (e-ISSN: 2716-6643) Vol.1 No. 1 (2020) Page 30
  7. applied programs that have implemented previously have the most potential to reduce poverty rates , namely productive zakat (zakat in the form of business capital), where the poor and the poor given funds and training for entrepreneurship, to be able to earn and not continue - have to get help from muzakki or continue to be mustahik. In another research (Baznas, 2018), despite zakat's tremendous potential, numerous challenges remain. These include low awareness of the need to pay zakat despite its mandatory nature as a pillar of Islam and a wariness concerning channelling funds through formal zakat institutions. The exacerbated by the preference of most muzakki toward shortterm, interpersonal offerings as well as by a low tax incentive for muzakki in Indonesia to pay zakat; muzakki offer a tax deduction, which is subject to double payment, rather than a tax credit. Zakat should not perceive as a corrective measure to reduce poverty, but rather, as a positive measure to redistribute wealth to prevent poverty (preventive/anticipatory). When there are more poor people, the amount of zakat collected will not be sufficient. Thus, there exists no built-in, counter-cyclical increase in formal expenditures, which is the weakness of zakat alone as a poverty prevention measure. The introduction of zakat into the next generation of financial inclusion programmes offers the breakthrough required, providing a branchless banking system that will improve the process of collection and distribution of zakat. Technological advances can complement this through online banking and mobile money, which can make it easier for people to make zakat contributions, mainly through formal channels. Improving efficiency and effectiveness in the performance of zakat institutions is also essential. People must convince that giving through an official organization is better than through informal networks. Moreover, the collection of zakat continues to focus only on zakat fitra (payment at the end of fasting during Ramadan) overlooking other types of zakat, such as zakat maal (an obligation applicable to all financial belongings, including from trade, agriculture, livestock, gold, silver and income). Greater trust, transparent and effective governance and demonstrating impact are critical for zakat and to get closer to achieving its full potential. SDGs can be used as a development platform through zakat, and the follow-up question is which dimensions of SDGs need to be on prioritize others. It should underline that not all SDGs programs can be fund using zakat funds. First, because zakat has eight asnaf, which is permanent and cannot be changed. Secondly, zakat is also more focused on fulfilling the needs of the daruriyah even though it does not have consequences on the prohibition of channelling for programs that are pilgrimage. Therefore, the optimum optimization of zakat on the SDGs initiative needs to be determined. In this study, researchers used ANP to determine which SDGs initiatives were prioritized by BAZNAS and amil zakat institutions the other. AZJAF (e-ISSN: 2716-6643) Vol.1 No. 1 (2020) Page 31
  8. Philanthropy for the Indonesian Muslim community has become an essential part compared to the two sides of the coin metal . Islam itself has a traditional tradition based on maslahah - in collecting and distributing ziswaf as a philanthropic idea. Where there is the relevance between the objectives of ZISWAF and SDGs towards achieving the goals of sustainable development in outline, the movement focuses on six issues including: without poverty, without hunger, quality education, decent work and economic growth, reduced inequality, environmental cleanliness. ZISWAF itself is part of ritual worship in the grairu mahdhah category having dimensions of responsibility and generosity. Moreover, funding to distribute (social functions) is not only that, but control is pressing for the flow of the public property. The essence and purpose must come from Islam based on al maqâshid al syarî’ah encourage sustainable equality in the economic-social field (iqtishâdiyyah-ijtimâ’iyyah). Baitul Mal BMT Tamzis has a way to contribute to the achievement of these goals with two strategies, namely, strategy charity and empowerment. So that the Tamzis BMT is considered an Inherent BMT that has a new enthusiasm for synergy, collaboration and the mutual bond between Tamwil (business) and mall (social) about mall management. Baitul Mal Tamzis uses the concept of the creative philanthropy approach which is to increase the scope and sustainable impact of the institutional nature and give a unique role to the institution with the specific characteristics of the institution and the target community. Zakat, as an instrument of economic distribution, aims at alleviating people from poverty and advancing the economy. Meanwhile, sustainable development goals (SDGs) are one of the agreements of the world community to create a world that is free from poverty, a dignified, just and prosperous life, and cooperate. Knowledge of zakat fiqh is needed to eliminate doubts in the field. Because at present, the management of zakat institutions still doubt whether zakat can be used to fund programs related to the achievement of SDGs. The management of zakat will have an impact on the performance of SDGs because the goal is sure to rid the people of poverty and social inequality. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY This study uses qualitative methods. The purpose of using this method is to capture value or view represented by experts and practitioners of zakat and SDGs in Indonesia. Qualitative study is a process or effort to understand scientific problems based on a complex overall picture, through information reported from the informant's viewpoint and carried out in natural situations (Sugiyono, 2005: 1). The method with a qualitative approach to this study is to review the literature or literature review from a variety of writing, research documents, and previous studies that are following the theme of this study.

  9. LIMITATION OF RESEARCH This research is limited to the distribution of zakat funds to the Republic of Indonesia Baznas 2019 (January-December). Many factors influence poverty. However, this research focuses on the distribution of zakat funds sourced from entities and individuals whose distribution is to various sectors such as social, education, health, economics and religion. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The issuance of Law No. 23 of 2011 concerning Management of Zakat further strengthens the role of BAZNAS as an institution authorized to conduct zakat management nationally. In the Act, BAZNAS declared as a non-structural government institution that is independent and responsible to the President through the Minister of Religion. Thus, BAZNAS, together with the Government, is responsible for overseeing the management of zakat, which based on Islamic law, trust, expediency, justice, legal certainty, integrated and accountability. Distribution Patterns of the National Amil Zakat Agency (BAZNAS) of the Republic of Indonesia. ▪ As in At-Taubah 60, zakat distribution is for 8 (eight) asnaf.

Growth Problem POVERTY Access Limitations Social Injustice Figure 3: Indonesian Poverty Problem In carrying out the distribution function, BAZNAS has 7 (seven) principles of the distribution and utilization program, namely trustful, cooperation, benefit, sustainable, participatory, integrated, and measurable. The shipping and utilization of zakat funds by BAZNAS based on the idea of solving the main problems faced by the Indonesian people. The first problem is access means that people do not have access to essential social services such as education, health, and other needs of the community. The second problem is growth, meaning that people do not have the opportunity to get out of the slump, for example, do not have the capital for business, do not know how to produce something, or do not have a market. The third problem is social injustice, meaning that people cannot develop themselves; for example, they do not have networking and capacity building. The distribution of zakat funds by BAZNAS is distinguished based on the needs of mustahik (Figure 4.0). Distribution of zakat funds for charitable or emergency services called delivery covering the education sector; health; humanitarian field; and the field of da'wahadvocacy. Whereas the distribution of productive zakat funds called utilization covering the areas of the economy, education, and health. AZJAF (e-ISSN: 2716-6643) Vol.1 No. 1 (2020) Page 34
