Muhammad Nur Al Fatih Ilham — 2024-05-07

One of the reasons for the suboptimal collection of zakat in Indonesia is the existence of a gap between the enormous potential for zakat and the actual collection efforts by zakat institutions. Researchers assume that zakat institutions (LAZ) need to take progressive steps by improving a more credible, professional, and transformative digitalization system. One way to achieve this is by optimizing transparency and social media within the digital system.

Data analysis was performed using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) and processed using SmartPLS software. The results of this research indicate that transparency and social media have a positive and significant influence on the intention to pay zakat income at LAZISMU Pusat. Therefore, this study provides managerial implications for zakat institutions that transparency and social media are crucial in encouraging Muslim communities to pay zakat, whether they are in Jabodetabek or outside the Jabodetabek region.

New innovations are implemented by zakat management organizations in the process of collecting zakat funds, among other numerous technological advancements. Zakat payment is perceived as being highly simple, practical, and successful thanks to technology. Indonesia has two zakat management organizations: BAZ (Amil Zakat Agency) and (Amil Zakat Institution). Zakat and taxes are contextually the same, but there are differences between the two, namely zakat is promulgated directly by Allah SWT for Muslims, while taxes are regulated by the state for all people in the country. Zakat can play a role in increasing state revenues and fostering community prosperity. In addition, zakat can also foster social care, eliminate economic tensions in society, as a charity activity, and function as working capital for underprivileged people so that they can open businesses, work, and be able to meet their basic needs.

Yohana Eva Sabatanti — 2024-05-07

The objective of this study is to examine the impact of profitability, Return on Equity (ROE), and assets on the corporate zakat of Islamic banking institutions in Indonesia. The research employed secondary data and was examined using a quantitative technique, specifically employing a panel data regression model. The data for this study was collected from Islamic Commercial Banks that published zakat funds between the years 2011 and 2021. Net Profit Margin (NPM) serves as a proxy for measuring the profitability of Islamic commercial banks. The findings indicate that the model employed in this study, which incorporates the variables of NPM, ROE, and assets, collectively exerts a statistically significant influence on corporate zakat. However, each element has a distinct impact on corporate performance. The findings of the study indicate that both NPM and assets exhibit a statistically significant impact on the zakat contributions made by companies. However, it is observed that the ROE does not have a significant effect on the zakat contributions made by companies. It can be firmly asserted that there is a positive correlation between a corporation's NPM and assets, and the corresponding increase in the amount of corporate zakat. This has the potential to provide the government with the opportunity to promote the performance of the Islamic banking industry, leading to an increase in their NPM and assets. This, in turn, can contribute to the social effect of the industry through the utilization of zakat.

The role of ZAKAT in Promoting Economic Growth with A Balance of "Justice"

Rohimah Rohimah — 2024-05-06

In Indonesia, where the majority of the population is Muslim, the potential for zakat is huge. The more zakat is spent, the more the national income of the country increases. The higher the national income of a country, the stronger its economic growth. Economic growth leads a country to prosperity and welfare. The benchmark of Zakat as a welfare regulator can indeed be used as a standard guideline in both microeconomic and macroeconomic contexts. Historical facts show that Zakat can increase a country's national income thereby creating wealth. We should emulate the government system of Umar bin Abdul Azis, especially regarding Zakat and taxation. Moreover, modern theories of Islamic economists, such as the so-called multiplier effect of Zakat, have discovered how the Zakat mechanism can actually increase national income which means increased economic growth. The provision of assistance in the form of consumer assistance alone can provide a significant multiplier effect (zakat multiplier). Moreover, since zakat is given in the form of production support such as working capital and revolving capital, its effectiveness is twice that of zakat in the form of consumer support, and the multiplier effect achieved in the economy is certainly greater. In addition, when we calculate Zakat using the macroeconomic approach to national income, we find that Zakat has a positive impact on rice income.

Empowering Zakat to Improve the Quality of Education in Indonesia

Mu'allimah Rodhiyana — 2024-05-07

Zakat and education are two elements that are bound together. Zakat is an investment for muzaki because zakat can also be interpreted as purifying or purifying. While education is an investment for future knowledge, zakat is a stimulus for the sustainability of education in Indonesia. This research uses a qualitative approach to library research. Library research is a type of approach that in its level of application is carried out by collecting and using data from various kinds of literature both from books, papers, scientific articles, and so on. In this study, zakat means spending some of the property, given to those entitled to receive it, so that the remaining property becomes clean and the people who get the property become pure in soul and behaviour. There are four types of zakat empowerment, namely: 1) Traditional consumptive, i.e., zakat is distributed to mustahiqq to fulfill the daily needs of the aṣnaf. 2) Creative consumptive, i.e., zakat that is realised in other forms, such as given in the form of school tools, scholarships, hoes, pottery and so on. 3) Traditional productive, where zakat is given in the form of productive goods, such as goats, cows, shaving tools, carpentry tools, sewing machines, and others. Giving in this form can facilitate the work productivity of the poor. 4) Creative productivity, namely zakat is realised in the form of revolving capital, both for social protection capital and to help or increase the capital of small entrepreneurs. The utilisation of zakat funds for the development of education is the right strategy and step. This is because education can provide solutions to poverty in Indonesia. Moreover, soft skills education and other skills can prepare students to directly enter the world of work.

The National Amil Zakat Agency (BAZNAS) of Sragen Regency as a zakat management institution that builds the economy of the people, to deal with poverty plays a very important role in encouraging people's welfare. This research is focused on the Blessing Village Program of the National Amil Zakat Agency of Sragen Regency. This study aims to analyze the level of community welfare in the BAZNAS Sragen Blessing Village Program with the Zakat Village Index (IDZ). This research is quantitative descriptive using the Zakat Village Index method which includes five dimensions, namely the Economic Dimension, Health Dimension, Education Dimension, Social and Human Dimension, and Da'wah Dimension, which is guided by the Strategic Studies Center (PUSKAS) BAZNAS. Zakat Community Developmentin the Prosperous Sragen Program or in local wisdom at BAZNAS Sragen as Kampung Berkah is an empowerment program for BAZNAS Sragen through the intermediary of the Zakat Collection Unit (UPZ) with the formation of the Berkah Village business group. The results of this study describe the measurement of the Zakat Village Index which refers to five dimensions. Basically each dimension has variables and indicators to be used as calculation parameters. The IDZ value is obtained by multiplying the index on each dimension by the contribution of each weight. Based on the measurement results of the Zakat Village Index, a value of 0.34 is obtained. This shows that the condition of the village of Kampung Berkah is not in a good condition, so it needs to be prioritized to receive zakat funds from the Sragen Sejahtera Program. Whereas,the index value can be said to be good if it has a value ranging from 0.81 to 1.00 so it is not prioritized for assistance.
