Zakat is one of the main pillars of Islam, required of Muslims who possess wealth exceeding the nisab threshold. Beyond its religious obligation, zakat also serves as a strategic tool for poverty alleviation and socioeconomic enhancement. The primary objective of zakat is to purify the wealth and soul of the muzakki (zakat giver) and to assist the mustahik (zakat recipients) in meeting their basic needs. In Indonesia, with its large Muslim population, the potential for zakat is significant, yet its impact on poverty reduction remains limited. Optimal zakat management is essential to ensure targeted distribution. Zakat includes eight categories of recipients: fakir, miskin, amil, muallaf, riqab, gharim, fii sabilillah, and ibn sabil. Through a productive approach, zakat can provide business capital and training to mustahik, enhancing their economic self-sufficiency and reducing social inequality. This study employs a library research method and a qualitative approach to explore the role of zakat in improving community welfare. The findings indicate that effective zakat management, especially in the form of productive zakat, can strengthen social solidarity and promote economic empowerment. Zakat functions not only as wealth redistribution but also as a holistic empowerment tool, contributing to achieving more equitable and comprehensive societal welfare.

 Over the years, value has been an important part of philosophical discussions, both implicitly and directly. Spiritualism is a teaching that says that the soul is the absolute reality of nature in the universe, and that the soul is the basis of the universe and provides a rational explanation. The first principle of Pancasila, Belief in One God, shows the value of spiritualism in its foundation. The value of spiritualism in its general form can be seen in the articles of the 1945 Constitution, especially Article 29 of the Amended 1945 Constitution. Spirituality focuses on a way of life, rather than abstract and speculative philosophical formulations. "Spirituality" is also considered a way that can be used to bring a person to the desired life. Exploring the values of Pancasila as a Liberating Spirituality is an effort and commitment as citizens of the nation, state, and religious communities to make Pancasila a guiding spirit in carrying out the governance of personal and social life of the nation and state. The national spirit of Pancasila truly becomes an inclusive social virtue, inspiring, uniting, and liberating all social groups, ethnicities, religions, languages, and aspirations. The spiritual values contained in Pancasila are divinity, humanity, unity, deliberation, and justice. These values are aligned with the universal values of all religions. Taking Pancasila as a liberating spirituality can help integrate the diversity-also known as kebhinekaan-that characterizes Indonesia around the world. In the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, the national spirit and liberating spirituality of Pancasila values are essential to anticipate and deal with such a crisis. The incarnation of the spirit of Pancasila can be seen in the benefits of national life, such as harmony, tolerance, solidarity, compassion, gotong royong, equality of the dignity of every Indonesian before the law, freedom of expression responsibly, and social solidarity. The sense of nationality reminds us how important it is for every Indonesian son and daughter to stick to the basic principles of national life, namely the love of the homeland, language, and one nation, Indonesia. Loyalty is not limited to religion, culture or geographical region. Basic human values can serve as benchmarks for a country's political, legal and economic systems, so that the spiritual values of Pancasila can liberate and liberate every citizen.

This study explores how the Qadiriyya–Naqshbandiyya Suryalaya Sufi Order (TQN Suryalaya) integrates spiritual practice and metabolic health to strengthen community resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic. While global health responses have largely focused on biomedical interventions, this research emphasizes the complementary role of faith-based practices in promoting holistic well-being. Using a qualitative methodology—including in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis of the 2020 Maklumat and Abah Aos’s letter to the President—the study identifies two interrelated pathways that underpin the Sufi lifestyle. The psychospiritual pathway encompasses the reduction of death anxiety through tawakkul (trust in God) and riḍā (contentment), emotional stability via dhikr (remembrance of God) and muraqabah (mindful awareness), and theological framing that interprets fear of Allah as the ultimate form of protection. These practices helped practitioners reframe pandemic-related uncertainties, mitigate stress, and foster emotional resilience. The metabolic pathway involves dietary simplicity, moderated caloric intake, physical worship routines, stress management, and structured sleep hygiene. Together, these elements supported immune competence and physical health, aligning with contemporary models of psychoneuroimmunology and holistic health promotion. Findings reveal that the TQN lifestyle does not only enhance individual mental well-being but also fosters social solidarity through communal worship, mutual aid, and spiritual counseling, thereby functioning as a culturally embedded form of faith-based social welfare. The study highlights the policy potential of incorporating Sufi practices into community health strategies and enriches interdisciplinary literature on religion, resilience, and social welfare. This dual-pathway model demonstrates that Sufi traditions can play a critical role in mitigating both the psychological and physiological impacts of global crises.
