Human welfare from an Islamic perspective pays attention to a balanced satisfaction between material needs and spiritual needs. Some policies have been implemented by the government to improve social security to humanity, but the lack of spiritual morale and lack of coordination between the related institutions resulted in policies that have not been implemented optimally. Consumer protection, which is one part of optimizing programs, has not yet run coordinatively. Therefore, the writer has an idea that can be implemented, which is Maqashid Sharia-based Consumer Education and Protection on Social Security for Muslims, the Poor, the Poor, and Non-Muslims to achieve falah with aspects that are the dharuriyat needs namely maintenance of faith (din), soul (nafs), reason (aql), descent (nasl), wealth (maal). The implementation of education and consumer protection based on maqashid sharia is a government apparatus, BAZ, LAZ, UPZ, and awareness for fellow human beings to bear the needy and poor alike in order to achieve the benefit of the people. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive approach. The concept of education and consumer protection based on maqashid sharia can be a creative and productive solution related to various moral and spiritual problems and the management of social security, justice for the poor in getting social security as mandated in the 1945 Constitution and the Koran. In addition, the implementation of this program is expected to achieve the independence of the people and the achievement of falah for all people.

The potential of zakat which is large in the country up to now has not been utilized by the Indonesian government to improve people's welfare. A new strategy is needed so that the potential of zakat in Indonesia can be absorbed optimally and distributed according to sharia provisions and community needs. This study aims to try to offer an idea to make zakat as an instrument of fiscal policy in Indonesia, namely to enter zakat into the posture of the Indonesian state budget, the aim of which is to optimize the absorption of zakat in the country and on its distribution target. The strategy that the authors offer to realize this is through reforming the regulatory aspects, making the structure and position of a more strategic zakat institution, namely by forming a directorate general of zakat, and entering the state budget posture zakat, namely the zakat receipt post at the receipt of non-tax revenues, and zakat expenditure posts are in the state expenditure post for poverty alleviation. Therefore, political will is needed in order to realize zakat as an instrument of fiscal policy in Indonesia.
