Abstract

This research investigates the role of Information Technology (IT) in optimizing Zakat management in Indonesia, the world's largest Muslim-majority country. Employing a mixed-methods approach, qualitative insights from in-depth interviews and quantitative data from surveys were integrated to provide a comprehensive understanding of the current state of IT integration, challenges faced, perceived benefits, and its impact on Zakat distribution processes. The findings reveal a spectrum of IT adoption among Zakat organizations, with cybersecurity concerns, resistance to change, and resource constraints identified as persistent challenges. Perceived benefits include enhanced transparency, streamlined distribution processes, and improved communication with beneficiaries. Statistical analysis supports a positive correlation between IT integration levels and perceived improvements in distribution fairness and effectiveness. The implications and recommendations drawn from these integrated insights guide stakeholders in optimizing Zakat administration through effective and secure IT adoption, aligning with principles of transparency, efficiency, and equitable distribution.

Abstract

This research investigates the impact of blockchain technology on the transparency of Zakat management in Indonesia through a quantitative analysis. The study encompasses a diverse sample of 350 participants from various Zakat institutions, analyzing demographic and organizational characteristics. Findings reveal a positive trend in blockchain adoption, with larger organizations and those in urban areas more likely to integrate the technology. Participants generally perceive Zakat management processes as clear and accountable, although improvements in accessibility are identified. Regression analysis demonstrates a statistically significant positive relationship between blockchain adoption and transparency. Challenges include technical barriers and high implementation costs, while opportunities include increased donor trust and operational efficiency gains. Policy implications suggest regulatory frameworks to support institutions, and organizational strategies recommend phased implementation and capacity-building initiatives. The study contributes insights for policymakers, Zakat institutions, and researchers navigating the intersection of traditional charitable practices and innovative technologies.
