This study analyzes the differences between the neoliberal and social democratic paradigms in poverty alleviation policies in Indonesia, by adding an Islamic Economic perspective as an alternative. The neoliberal paradigm focuses on free market mechanisms, deregulation, and minimizing the role of the state, but often exacerbates social inequality. In contrast, the social democratic paradigm balances the role of the market and state intervention through resource redistribution and protection of vulnerable groups through sustainable social programs. Islamic economics offers a complementary approach oriented towards the principles of distributive justice, balance, and solidarity, by integrating spiritual values ​​into socio-economic policies. A qualitative approach is used in this study, with policy analysis of programs such as the Family Hope Program (PKH) and the National Health Insurance (JKN). The results show that the social democratic paradigm is more effective in reducing poverty systemically than neoliberalism, especially through increasing access to education, health, and social protection. However, budget constraints, corruption, and infrastructure gaps remain significant challenges. The Islamic Economic perspective emphasizes the importance of zakat, waqf, and infaq as instruments of wealth redistribution that have the potential to strengthen inclusive and sustainable poverty alleviation policies. This study recommends strengthening the synergy between the paradigm of social democracy and the values ​​of Islamic Economics to create policies that are more effective, equitable, and oriented towards the welfare of society holistically.  

Islam teaches that if there is an interest or need, it is recommended to spend wealth to donate. Infaq is an act of worship that is sunnah. Donation activities have two benefits, namely to meet the basic needs of the poor and help them to carry out good deeds.  Islam has taught its followers that they have an obligation to help each other, especially those who are weak (the Dhuafa), the poor, and those in need.

The focus of sharia monetary economics is to apply Islamic rules in financial management to improve welfare and reduce poverty. The system emphasizes the concepts of justice and equity and avoids elements such as usury, uncertainty, and excessive speculation. The sharia monetary economy aims to increase income equality by using instruments such as zakat, infaq, alms, and waqf.

Waqf is one of the instruments of Islamic philanthropy that plays a strategic role in building sustainable welfare for the people. Although the term waqf is not explicitly mentioned in the Qur'an, its basic values are scattered throughout various verses that talk about infaq, almsgiving, distribution of wealth, and social justice. This article aims to analyse Qur'anic verses that have a substantial connection with the concept of waqf through a thematic (maudhu'i) interpretation approach, as well as to examine its relevance to efforts to improve the welfare of the ummah in a contemporary context. This study uses a qualitative-descriptive literature review method, drawing on the Qur'an, classical and contemporary interpretations, and scientific literature related to waqf and Islamic economics. The results of the study show that the principle of waqf in the Qur'an emphasises the sustainability of benefits, the trustworthiness of asset management, and an orientation towards social justice, all of which are relevant to the development of productive waqf as a solution for the welfare of the modern community.

Learning based on Zakat, Sedekah, and Infaq (ZIS) plays a significant role in shaping students' character, particularly in moral, emotional, and social aspects. This study aims to identify efforts to enhance ZIS learning that can be implemented at SDN 105337 Pantai Labu. The research employs a qualitative approach with interview, observation, and documentation techniques. The results reveal that the implementation of ZIS-based learning not only improves students' understanding of Islamic finance concepts but also positively impacts the development of moral character, such as empathy, social awareness, and collaboration skills. Furthermore, students involved in the ZIS program demonstrate improvements in emotional aspects, including emotional management and self-confidence. This study recommends the integration of ZIS learning into the school curriculum to foster a more caring and responsible generation.

This study aims to analyze the influence of religious awareness, social awareness, and payment convenience on the level of public participation in paying zakat, infaq, and sadaqah (ZIS) at BAZNAS in Ponorogo Regency. The research method employed is quantitative, with data collection through questionnaires. Data analysis was performed using multiple linear regression. The results indicate that religious awareness negatively affects the level of public participation in ZIS payment.

These findings suggest that increasing social awareness and providing easier payment systems can encourage public participation in paying ZIS, while the factor of religious awareness requires further study regarding its negative influence. This research contributes to BAZNAS in Ponorogo Regency in formulating strategies to increase public participation in ZIS payment.

Economic development is the main goal that every country wants to achieve to improve people's welfare, reduce poverty, and encourage sustainable economic growth. This study examines the important role of philanthropic institutions and fiscal policy in encouraging economic development, both in general and from an Islamic economic perspective. Philanthropy, through voluntary contributions such as zakat, infaq, alms, and waqf, helps fill gaps that cannot be fully addressed by the public sector, improves people's welfare, and reduces socio-economic disparities. Fiscal policy, as the main tool of government, plays an important role in managing state revenues and expenditures, influencing economic growth, income distribution, and macroeconomic stability. Through in-depth literature analysis, this research finds synergies between the philanthropic sector and fiscal policy that can strengthen sustainable economic development. This study also provides insight into the development of Islamic economics in the last three decades, showing significant progress in academic research and operational practice. It is hoped that the results of this research can provide significant policy recommendations to maximize the potential of these two tools in achieving fair and sustainable economic development.
