Abstract

This study analysesand identifies the governance factor(s) that influence zakat disbursement efficiency for Indonesia’s National Zakat Board (BAZNAS)in four district of Central Java Province, namely Banyumas, Purbalingga, Banjarnegara, and Kebumen. This research examines how the zakat institution in Indonesia has improved in terms of disbursement activities over the past 5 years (2011-2015).This is a quantitative research study that uses two approaches of efficiency analysis, namely (i) zakat disbursement efficiency measurement (ratio analysis) and (ii) identification of governance factor(s) that influence the zakat disbursement efficiency of the zakat institutions (regression analysis). Eviews 9 was used in data calculation. In the first approach, there are three efficiency measures: disbursement efficiency, cost efficiency and time efficiency. In the second approach, governance factors (board size; professionals on board; and frequency of board meetings) identify the influence of governance factors on zakat disbursement efficiency measures. The findings showthat there is a negative influence between board size and cost efficiency and no influence with disbursement and time efficiency. However, the relationshipbetween board size and disbursement and time efficiency is rejected because of insignificant results. Professionals on boards has a positive influence on disbursement, cost and time efficiency. Lastly, the frequency of board meetings positively influences disbursement efficiency and time efficiency. Frequency of board meetings showed a negative influence with cost efficiency. This research is significant as it could contribute to future discussions on the potential ways to improve zakat governance and efficiency in Indonesia. The outcomes from the discussions will be useful as a guide for policymakers looking to improve the zakat institution’s governance system. Keywords:Efficiency, Governance, Indonesia, Zakat

Abstract

This researchaimsto analyze the direct and indirect effects of zakat on the household consumption of mustahik. The research adopts a quantitative approach and usespath analysis. Data were obtained from 50 mustahik (zakat recipients)at BAZNAS Probolinggo Municipalityusing theproportional random sampling method. The results show that zakat and number of household members directly and indirectly affect the household consumption of mustahik. Furthermore, household income as an intermediate variable also affects the household consumption of mustahik, whereas education and age have no effect, either directly or indirectly. The lackof effect of education on consumption can be attributed to the mustahiks’ jobs, for which no education/special skills are required;thus, a high level of education does not affect household income and consumption. Similarly, the lack of effect of age on predicted consumption is because many mustahik are not at a productive age and do not work;increasing age does not therefore increase income and consumption.

Abstract

A crucial problem faced by Indonesia is its high poverty rate. One of the redistribution instruments that can be used to reduce poverty is zakat. The zakat potential of Pati Regency, Indonesia in 2016 was approximately Rp 20 billion, but the funds collected only amounted to around 9 percent of this figure (Rp 1.8 billion). This statistic shows that the management of zakat is not optimized, both in terms of its collection and distribution. This study aims to evaluate the performance of zakat practices, and the influenceof zakat on the welfare of mustahik (recipients of zakat) in Pati Regency, Indonesia. The research was conducted by means of a survey of 100 households of mustahik and interviews. The sampling method that used in this research was purposive sampling technique. Analysis of the result was undertakenusing by National Zakat Index (NZI) and Muti-Stage Weight Index Method. The result of this research show that the performance of zakat practices in Pati Regency is in the “less good” category with an index value of 0.392. Keywords: Poverty, National Zakat Index, Performance of Zakat Practices

Abstract

The Special Region of Yogyakarta is one of the provinces with a high incidenceof poverty onJava Island. The number of mosques and the increase of zakat funds, infak, and sadaqaheach year is not sufficientto reduce the number of those in poverty. If the mosque is able tomanage the zakat, infak, and sadaqahfunds well, it can be predicted that the mosque would reduce poverty and increase the welfare of the community. This study aims to analyze the impact of zakat, infak, and sadaqah distribution in reducing poverty based on the Center for Islamic Business and Economic Studies (CIBEST) model (case study: Jogokariyan Baitul Maal Mosque, Yogyakarta). The results of the study indicate that there is an increase in welfare and a decrease in material poverty, spiritual poverty, and absolute poverty, as seen from changes in the Islamic CIBEST’s poverty indexes formustahik households.
