Poverty as a social problem will never escape the attention and discussion of Islamic teachings. Islam explores some of the most urgent main themes of empowerment and community involvement in eradicating their poverty. The Qur'an as the main source of Islamic teachings echoed a moral call for social justice in the economy to be upheld against people living below the poverty line. Efforts to alleviate poverty, one of the main focuses in Islam is the doctrine of weak economic empowerment of the people. Islam considers human resources personally to be the main agent in empowering the people's economy. Furthermore, Islam also sees that poverty alleviation is the collective responsibility of society so that the effort of economic empowerment of the poor becomes the collective obligation of all elements of society, especially poverty caused by social structure. It takes synergy between elements of society both government, ulama and society itself as subject and object of change. Some of the above empowerment models can be divided into two groups; Structural and cultural measures. Structural measures are more emphasized to the special institutions that handle them to run well, while cultural steps are emphasized on individuals, both individuals who are expected to be one of the subjects of poverty alleviation and empowerment of the poor and the poor and who became its object

Abstract: The Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia released data that stated that almost 95% of waqf assets had not been used optimally. One reason is that there are only a few waqf management institutions that manage waqf property professionally and productively. Baitulmaal Munzalan Indonesia Foundation is present as one of the institutions engaged in zakat, infāq, alms, and waqf, as well as collaborating for the economic empowerment of the people. Having only been established for two years, BMI was entrusted with managing cash waqf amounting to Rp. 2,993,050,577.64 and has been distributed in the amount of Rp. 535,414,900.00 in 2018. This paper uses the type of field research and data collection techniques through interviews, documentation, and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). There are three research results in this paper. First, the Gerakan Wakaf Produktif in BMI consists of five programs, namely cash waqf, waqf asset waqf, profession waqf, benefit waqf, and waqf transfer of rights. Second, the management of cash waqf by BMI starts from planning the waqf-based infrastructure, determining the number of funds needed, and campaigning for it. The cash waqf funds collected are then used to buy raw materials used to build waqf based infrastructure. Third, BMI uses information technology in three ways, starting with collecting and managing cash waqf and its accountability report. The information technology it uses is social media, websites, and contact persons via mobile phones. الملخص: أصدرت وزارة الدين الإندونيسية بيانات تفيد بأن ما يقرب من ۹۵ في المئة من أصول الوقف لم تستخدم بالشكل الأمثل. أحد الأسباب هو أنه لا يوجد سوى عدد قليل من مؤسسات إدارة الوقف التي تدير ممتلكات الوقف بطريقة مهنية ومنتجة. تتواجد مؤسسة بيت المال منزلا إندونيسيا باعتبارها واحدة من المؤسسات العاملة في مجال الزكاة والإنفاق والصدقات والأوقاف، بالإضافة إلى التعاون من أجل التمكين الاقتصادي للناس. بعد أن تم تأسيسها لمدة عامين فقط، تم تكليف بيت المال منزلا إندونيسيا بإدارة الوقف النقدي بمبلغ ٢.٩٩٣.٠٥٠.٥٧٧,٦٤ روبية وقد تم توزيعها بمبلغ ٥٣٥.٤١٤.٩٠٠,٠٠ روبية في ٢٠١٨. تستخدم هذه الورقة نوع البحث الميداني وتقنيات جمع البيانات من خلال المقابلات والتوثيق و مناقشة جماعية فى موضوع محدد. هناك ثلاث نتائج بحث في هذه الورقة. أولاً، تتكون حركة الأوقاف الإنتاجية في بيت المال منزلا إندونيسيا من خمسة برامج، هي الوقف النقدي، والأوقاف الأصولية، والأوقاف المهنية، والأوقاف، وحقوق التحويل. ثانيًا، تبدأ إدارة الوقف النقدي من قبل بيت المال منزلا إندونيسيا من تخطيط البنية التحتية القائمة على الوقف، وتحديد مقدار الأموال اللازمة، والحملة من أجله. ثم يتم استخدام أموال الوقف النقدية التي تم جمعها لشراء المواد الخام المستخدمة لبناء البنية التحتية القائمة على الوقف. ثالثًا، يستخدم مؤشر كتلة الجسم تقنية المعلومات بثلاث طرق، بدءًا بجمع وإدارة الوقف النقدي وتقرير المساءلة الخاص به. تكنولوجيا المعلومات التي تستخدمها هي وسائل التواصل الاجتماعي والمواقع الإلكترونية وأشخاص الاتصال عبر الهواتف المحمولة. Abstrak: Kementerian Agama RI merilis data yang menyatakan bahwa hampir 95% aset wakaf belum dimanfaatkan secara optimal. Salah satu penyebabnya adalah masih sedikit lembaga pengelola wakaf yang mengelola harta benda wakaf secara profesional dan produktif. Yayasan Baitulmaal Munzalan Indonesia hadir sebagai salah satu lembaga yang bergerak di zakat, infak, sedekah, dan wakaf, serta mengkolaborasikannya untuk pemberdayaan ekonomi umat. Baru berdiri selama dua tahun, BMI dipercaya untuk mengelolah wakaf tunai sebesar Rp. 2.993.050.577,64 dan telah didistribusikan sebesar Rp. 535.414.900,00 pada 2018. Tulisan ini menggunakan jenis penelitian lapangan dan teknik pengumpulan data melalui wawancara, dokumentasi dan FGD. Ada tiga hasil penelitian dalam tulisan ini. Pertama, Gerakan Wakaf Produktif di BMI terdiri dari lima program, yaitu wakaf tunai, wakaf aset, wakaf profesi, wakaf manfaat, dan wakaf pengalihan hak. Kedua, pengelolaan wakaf tunai oleh BMI dimulai dari merencanakan infrastruktur berbasis wakaf, menetapkan jumlah dana yang dibutuhkan, dan mengkampanyekannya. Dana wakaf tunai yang terkumpul, kemudian digunakan untuk membeli bahan-bahan baku yang digunakan untuk membangun infrastruktur berbasis wakaf.

This study aims at investigating scholastic thoughts regarding poverty alleviation in Bangladesh. Two round Delphi techniques were applied to obtain experts’ opinion in support of probable resolution of poverty. University academics, government officials, non-government executives, and social & political personalities have been considered as scholars. The study reveals that limitation of job is the fundamental cause of poverty. Consequently, the poor are bound to live in vulnerable unhygienic places where inadequate services are prevailing. It is also opined by the experts that home-based work and special training will help the poor to get job that will lead to reduce poverty to a great extent. A lack of integration is evident among different opinions of the scholars. As a result, the poverty reduction efforts show insignificant achievement in view of its goal. A number of suggestions have been recommended to alleviate poverty in the urban area like Rajshahi city in Bangladesh. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/iiucs.v6i0.12250 IIUC Studies Vol.6 2010: 77-96

Inclusive financial sectors are essential to poverty alleviation. While microcredit can be governed as a private good, self-managed civil society organizations propose an alternative way of managing financial services. Brazil’s Community Development Banks (CDBs) are growing and dynamic manifestations of these nonprofit organizations. Based on field research in Brazil, this article uses Elinor Ostrom’s design principles of successful self-governing common-pool resource organizations to analyze CDBs’ microcredit system. Our results suggest that private goods could be altered when they are governed by community self-managed enterprises. They become hybrid goods as they mix the characteristics of private and common goods. This change is facilitated by specific organizational arrangements such as self-governance that emerge from grassroots dynamics and the creation of collective-choice arenas. These arrangements help strengthen the inclusion properties of nonprofit microcredit services.

The <em>mustahiq </em>independency is important to solve the problem of inequalities in society, marginalization, unemployemnt and poverty. This can only be achieved if zakat is able to used as a means for economic empowerment of the poor that would increase their capacity and enable them to become enterpreneur and hence able to fulfil their needs by themselves.  This article attempts to observe various zakat productive programs initiated by zakat institutions in Indonesia and also analyze their implications in empowering the poors and increase their level of wellbeing.
