Jakarta, 2 Februari 2026 - Chairman of BAZNAS RI, Prof. Dr. KH. Noor Achmad, MA, attended the event “BAZNAS Ramadan Program Press Conference 2026 – Zakat Strengthens Indonesia” on the 5th floor. The National Board of Zakat (BAZNAS) RI has adopted the tagline “Zakat Strengthens Indonesia” as the spirit of zakat management in 2026, including during the month of Ramadhan. This was conveyed during the BAZNAS Ramadhan Program Press Conference 2026.

The role of zakat was highlighted in responding to flood disasters in several regions, such as Aceh, West Sumatra, and North Sumatra, where zakat serves as a social safety net that helps accelerate the recovery of affected communities. In 2026, BAZNAS will focus its policies on strengthening disaster response, ranging from emergency response to recovery and community empowerment–based reconstruction, through programs such as Back to School, Back to Work, Back to Home, and Back to the Mosque. In addition, BAZNAS will also strengthen programs for economic empowerment of mustahik, education, health, as well as social and religious development.

Through the tagline “Zakat Strengthens Indonesia,” BAZNAS invites all elements of the nation to make zakat, infaq, and sadaqah a collective strength in bringing hope and strengthening Indonesia amid various challenges.
