Introduction: This study analyzes the influence of macroeconomic factors—specifically inflation and unemployment—on the collection and distribution of zakat, as well as their impact on provincial economic growth in Indonesia.

Methods: Data were collected from 33 provinces over the period 2012–2023. The study utilizes the path analysis model to process the collected data, employing SmartPLS 4.0 software for analytical procedures.

Results: The study finds that inflation and unemployment negatively affect zakat collection and economic growth. Conversely, zakat collection has a positive influence on its distribution, which ultimately supports economic growth.

Conclusion and suggestion: These findings underscore the potential of zakat as a macroeconomic instrument for sustainable development. The results provide important implications for zakat management and Islamic economic policy in Indonesia.
