Asnaf entrepreneurs are a group that needs support and assistance from zakat institutions and the State Islamic Religious Council (SIRC) through the state zakat fund. Assistance provided either in the form of capital, equipment, courses or business skills. This is to help them develop their business and succeed in getting out of the cocoon of poverty. This study aims to examine the success factors of asnaf entrepreneurs. This success factor needs to be well identified in order to have a positive impact not only on the asnaf entrepreneurs involved but also on the responsible institutional governance. Therefore, the researcher used the method of systematic literature review (SLR) as a research methodology that involves three stages of article selection which is the focus of this study, namely identification, screening and eligibility. The findings of the study found twelve (12) articles that discuss the success factors of asnaf entrepreneurs. Based on the twelve articles analysed, there are two categories which are internal factors and external factors that influence success among asnaf entrepreneurs. Understanding the success factors of entrepreneurs is very important in helping asnaf entrepreneurs achieve success and reduce the risk of failure in business.
