empowerment, the welfare of mustahik through the distribution of productive zakat funds. The type of

This study found that the productive zakat program at BMH East Kalimantan includes three things,
namely fundraising, distribution and management. The collection carried out by BMH is not only from
one source of funds but from various sources of funds. For distribution, what BMH does is distribute it
to two groups, namely to people in need who do not have a previous business and who already have a
business but need assistance from BMH to develop it. Then from its management, BMH helps from an
economic perspective and helps muzakki to maintain their faith and worship to Allah, through
evaluation and control meetings. The existing mechanism at BMH related to the productive zakat
program is legally appropriate and does not violate the existing shari'a provisions, also the purpose of
productive zakat is to develop and grow the economy for people in need, so that with the development of
the economy, mustahiq no longer depend on other people for their lives.
