Economic empowerment of people with disabilities is one of the efforts to address the limited opportunities and job fields for them. This study aims to analyze the economic empowerment of people with disabilities through waste management at Bank Sampah Berkah (BSB). Using a qualitative descriptive research method, the results show that economic empowerment of people with disabilities through BSB has a positive impact, such as opening up job opportunities, increasing income, and improving the family's economy. In addition, this empowerment also has an impact on the environment. The economic empowerment of people with disabilities through BSB is also in line with the principles of maqashid syariah, so that this activity can bring goodness to the world and the hereafter.
