Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the appropriate zakat rate for content creators from the perspective of zakat law, evaluate its distributive justice, and formulate strategic measures to enhance zakat compliance among digital content creators. This research employs a normative-doctrinal legal approach based on library research and deductive reasoning. The primary legal materials consist of Konsensus Ulama Fatwa Indonesia: Himpunan Hasil Ijtima' Ulama Komisi Fatwa se-Indonesia VIII Tahun 2024, Potensi Zakat YouTubers, Influencers, and E-Commerce Affiliates di Indonesia 2024, and credible reports from online media concerning the latest income data of content creators across various digital platforms. Secondary legal materials include the opinions of contemporary Muslim scholars and previous studies on professional zakat. The findings reveal that income generated through social media activities constitutes zakatable wealth because it is earned regularly and, in many cases, exceeds the income of agricultural producers. Therefore, the Indonesian Council of Ulama (MUI) fatwa prescribing a professional zakat rate of 2.5% or 2.57% for digital content creators requires further reconsideration, as it raises concerns regarding equity when compared with the zakat obligations imposed on farmers. This study argues that the zakat rate applicable to digital content creators should be aligned with the provisions of agricultural zakat, namely 5% or 10%, depending on the production costs incurred in generating digital content. Furthermore, zakat should be calculated based on gross income rather than net income. To improve zakat compliance, zakat institutions should develop integrated digital payment systems connected to social media platforms, collaborate with prominent influencers to promote zakat awareness, and advocate for tax incentives for content creators who fulfill their zakat obligations. The study contributes to the ongoing development of professional zakat discourse in the digital era by recognizing content creation as a profession subject to zakat. It also underscores the importance of establishing zakat obligations for emerging professions that generate substantial income. Future research should explore the extent to which content creators comply with professional zakat requirements and identify factors influencing their compliance behavior.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the development of zakat management in Muslim-majority countries, both in terms of collection and distribution. In addition, it aims to determine the renewal of zakat fiqh in Indonesia and digital-based zakat management. This study includes a literature review that discusses several previous studies related to the development and transformation of zakat management in the digital era using a qualitative approach. The inclusion keywords used to find relevant research themes are “Zakat Management in Islamic Countries,” “Renewal of Fiqh Zakat,” “Interpretation of the Meaning of Mustahik,” “Development of Zakat Objects,” “Determination of Professional Zakat,” “Reinterpretation of Ghārimīn, Sabīlillah, and Riqāb,” and “Digital-Based Zakat Management.” This mapping aims to build a strong theoretical foundation, identify research gaps, avoid duplication, and provide a comprehensive overview of the transformation of zakat management. The results of this study show that the development of zakat in several Islamic countries continues to transform over time, marked by the renewal of nisab and zakat rates, the establishment of zakat institutions, the development of zakat objects, and the expansion of zakat distribution for the public interest that contains values of goodness. The renewal of zakat fiqh in Indonesia is marked by the establishment of professional zakat and the obligation of zakat on paper money as part of the development of zakat objects. Meanwhile, the contextualization of the meaning of mustahik refers to the social conditions of Indonesian society in the modern era. Digital-based management is implemented to adapt to advances in technology and information, which have become a trend among the community. This kind of adaptation in zakat management must be recognized as part of social change. This study highlights the importance of renewing zakat fiqh and digital-based management in the era of society 5.0 for zakat institutions in Islamic countries.
