Entrepreneurship contributes significantly to the economic development of a country. Thus, more entrepreneurs tend to make business their main source of income to live better. Poor and needy asnaf was not left behind with the help of capital assistance and business equipment from the zakat institutions. However, the zakat institutions faced challenges in nurturing the asnaf on the character of successful entrepreneurs. The main objective was to identify the success factors of poor and needy asnaf entrepreneurs. The first specific objective was to examine the relationship between the characters of asnaf entrepreneurs, such as the entrepreneur's characteristics, attitudes, skills and competencies and the success of asnaf entrepreneurs who participated in the Jaya Diri program organised by the Kedah State Zakat Board. Next, to study the relationship between Islamic spiritual practices and the success of asnaf entrepreneurs in the program. Lastly, to determine whether Islamic spiritual practice was a moderating factor in the relationship between the characteristics of entrepreneurs (love challenges, discipline, and vision) and their success in the program.
