Zakah for Development and Civilisation (Analysis of HAMKA's Thought in Tafsir Al Azhar)
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper explains about Hamka's Thought in Tafsir al-Azhar about the Spirit of Zakat for Development and Islamic Civilisation. The main source of research is Tafsir Al Azhar by Buya Hamka with the focus of Surah al-Taubah verses 60 and 103. The research method uses qualitative research with a content analysis approach. The research findings show Hamka's sharp analysis of the spirit of zakat for life. Zakat for muzakki is a soul cleanser from dirty traits in humans such as greed and hustle. These two traits make humans excessive towards wealth, cheating, lying, hurting others for the sake of wealth, even at the largest level causing war and colonisation. Likewise, the famine that occurred. For this reason, paying zakat is one of the efforts to overcome global problems. People who pay zakat have a generous character, generous, and not greedy. Generous nature can foster soul awareness about human identity as God's creatures so that awareness of brotherhood between others is awakened and eliminate ego traits and grow togetherness of the universe so as to create a civilised and just world. Thus, a civilised world order will be realised.
