Limitations in accessing political, social, cultural, and economic resources, as well as social participation, are often seen as characteristics of poverty. Despite various regulations and initiatives, the number of people living in poverty has not been significantly reduced. This indicates that sometimes the number of poor individuals can increase. In the context of Islamic political economy, it is crucial to uphold social justice and equitable distribution in order to uplift morally marginalized individuals. There are two main political and economic approaches that can be taken to halt the worsening of poverty. First, these strategies involve addressing the underlying causes of poverty through political means. Second, it is necessary to establish clear connections between institutional policies and measures to alleviate poverty. Institutional approaches are based on the understanding that markets alone cannot control economic growth and distribution, thus requiring appropriate government intervention.
