Abstract

This article explores the role of Islamic philanthropy education in shaping the social and economic character in society through the integration of the values of zakat, sadaqah, and waqf into the educational curriculum. The aim of this research is to analyze how philanthropic education can equip students with a better understanding of social responsibility and resource management. Utilizing a qualitative literature-based research approach, this methodology focuses on analyzing existing literature, scholarly articles, and relevant documents to explore how the integration of Islamic philanthropy values into the educational curriculum can influence the development of social and economic character. The results of the study indicate that the integration of these values into the curriculum not only enhances students' social awareness but also prepares them to become economically responsible individuals. Furthermore, this research finds that philanthropy education can create a more solidarity-driven environment in society, strengthening care for others and increasing participation in social activities. These findings highlight the importance of Islamic philanthropy education in character development among the younger generation.
