Efektifitas Kebijakan Fiskal Bantuan Progam Keluarga Harapan Dalam Pengentasan Kemiskinan Dalam Persepektif Maqashid Syariah

Abstract

Fiscal policy is an essential instrument in the government's efforts to reduce poverty and improve social welfare. By regulating state expenditures and revenues, the government can drive economic growth, create jobs, and provide the social services needed by the poor. This article examines the effectiveness of fiscal policy in the form of the Family Hope Program (Program Keluarga Harapan, PKH) in Indonesia from the perspective of maqashid shariah. PKH is a conditional cash transfer program aimed at improving human resources quality and reducing poverty by providing cash assistance to poor families. This article employs a literature research approach to analyze relevant literature and empirical data related to the implementation and impact of PKH. The research findings indicate that PKH is effective in increasing household income, reducing absolute poverty, improving access to education and healthcare, and enhancing the socio-economic status of beneficiary families. From the maqashid shariah perspective, PKH contributes to the protection of religion, life, intellect, lineage, and property of poor families, which collectively supports societal welfare. However, challenges such as targeting accuracy, implementation efficiency, and program sustainability still need to be addressed to enhance the effectiveness of PKH.
