Abstract

This study aims to analyze the mechanism of zakat collection, the level of optimization in zakat fund collection, and strategies to increase community participation in distributing zakat through the Zakat Collection Unit (UPZ) in Tiuh Balak Pasar Village, Baradatu District, Way Kanan Regency. This research employed a qualitative approach using a case study method through interviews, observations, and documentation techniques. The results showed that the UPZ has carried out its functions in collecting and managing zakat quite effectively through direct services, religious outreach, transparent management, and zakat pick-up services that help build public trust. However, zakat collection has not yet been optimal due to the low level of public zakat literacy, the strong tradition of distributing zakat directly to mustahik, limited human resources, and the underutilization of digital technology in zakat administration and payment systems. The study also found that management transparency and supervision from BAZNAS are important factors in increasing the legitimacy and public trust toward the UPZ. The contribution of this research lies in the development of Islamic economics studies, particularly regarding the optimization of community-based zakat management at the village level by emphasizing social, institutional, and zakat digitalization aspects. In addition, the findings of this study can serve as a reference for UPZ, BAZNAS, and local governments in formulating more effective, modern, transparent, and sustainable zakat collection strategies.
