Zakat Empowerment of Cibuluh Batik Village Perspective Of “Agil” Functional Structural Theory

Abstract

This article explores the impact of zakat in the context of social and economic empowerment of women batik makers in Kampung Batik Cibuluh, Bogor City, by applying the Functional Structural Theory "AGIL" by Talcott Parsons. Through a qualitative approach and phenomenological methodology, this research involves women batik makers as the main participants. The empowerment program in Kampung Batik Cibuluh has successfully implemented the "AGIL" concept, which includes adaptation to change, achievement of goals, integration of women batik makers into broader social and economic networks, and maintenance of cultural values. This study provides new insights into community empowerment through holistic zakat, addressing social and financial challenges, and strengthening social structures within the community.
