Keywords:

Social inequality remains one of the major challenges in Indonesia's development process, characterized by disparities in income distribution, access to economic resources, education, and social welfare. Conventional development approaches that emphasize economic growth have not always been able to ensure equitable distribution of wealth among all segments of society. In this context, Islamic economic development offers an alternative framework that emphasizes justice, balance, and social welfare through the principle of distributive justice. This study aims to analyze the role of Islamic economic development based on distributive justice as a solution to social inequality in Indonesia. The research employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method by examining various books, journal articles, and relevant scientific sources related to Islamic economics and social inequality. The findings indicate that Islamic economic development promotes equitable wealth distribution through instruments such as zakat, waqf, sadaqah, inheritance distribution, and profit-sharing mechanisms. These instruments contribute to reducing economic disparities, enhancing social welfare, and creating a more inclusive and sustainable development process. Therefore, the implementation of distributive justice principles within Islamic economic development can serve as a strategic solution to addressing social inequality and achieving equitable prosperity in Indonesia.References
