Abstract

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were adopted by the United Nations (UN) on 25 September 2015. It consists of 17 interconnected goals intended to be achieved over the next 8 years (2030). Most of the goals are present in Bangladesh and goal number two “end hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture” is one of them. However, the current progress scenario towards achieving SDG 2 in the country is unsatisfactory due to some obstacles. As the world's third largest Muslim country, Zakat has huge potential as a source of revenue in Bangladesh. Undoubtedly, Zakat is one of the most important tools of Islamic finance that can play a vital role in alleviating hunger in the country. The study aims to identify the challenges faced by Bangladesh to acquire goal number 2 of SDG and particularly analyse the impact of zakat on improving the food safety status in the country which will facilitate the path towards achieving SDG 2 – Zero Hunger. This study is expected to contribute primarily to the government and zakat management institutions of Bangladesh to optimize the feasibility and utilization of the zakat mechanism. Keywords: Challenges, SDGs, Zero Hunger, Food Certainty, Bangladesh, Zakat.

Abstract

The collection of Zakāt al-Māl in Brunei Darussalam is a concern as it is still considered to be in a weak position knowing that Zakāt al-Māl collection is the main contributor to the total zakāt collected. It is known zakāt institutions faced many issues and challenges in carrying the role to improve Zakāt al-Māl collection. The main objective of this paper is to examine and elaborate the issues and challenges of Zakāt al-Māl collection in Brunei Darussalam faced by Brunei Islamic Religious Council (MUIB). This paper analyses and extracts the issues and challenges faced by MUIB from personal interviews with the head of departments in MUIB. Findings of this study indicates the issues and challenges were (1) there are limited promotions conducted by MUIB to educate the public regarding the payments of zakāt; (2) Limited number of staff; (3) The lack of using technology. This has limited the capability to improve the Zakāt al-Māl collection in Brunei in order to achieve its full potential. However, the findings also indicate there were several initiatives to tackle the issues and challenges. This paper highlights the need to promote and educate the public to increase awareness on Zakāt al-Māl payments and to utilise technology to enhance the management of zakāt especially in the collection of Zakāt al-Māl.

Abstract

Zakat is one of the duties that a Muslim must do. As a country with the largest Muslim population, Zakat potential in Indonesia reaches 327 T (trillion) every year. Seeing the enormous potential, this research will examine Zakat distribution through human development, unemployment, and poverty in Indonesia between 2011-2021. However, unfortunately, Indonesia's total collection of Zakat in 2021 only reached around 517,2 billion. With a total of 44 samples, the data were processed using Vector Auto-Regressive (VAR) with Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) estimation. In the short term, based on data processing results, Zakat's distribution does not affect human development, unemployment, and poverty. Nevertheless, in the long term, it is known that the distribution of Zakat affects human development, unemployment, and poverty. The results of this research are expected to be evaluation material for the government, Zakat management institutions, and Muslim society to pay more attention to the urgency of Zakat on human development, unemployment, and poverty.

Abstract

Purification of wealth, eradication of poverty, and socio-economic development are among zakat’s frequently claimed ultimate purposes. A sound zakat management system is goal-oriented and works to achieve those goals. Zakat collection and distribution activities must materialise zakat objectives by applying objectives-driven techniques. This study examines how zakat management, collection, and distribution are consistent with Maqasid Al-Shariah and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This qualitative study in nature analyses secondary data from East Malaysian zakat institutions. The study’s findings indicate that both zakat institutions in East Malaysia, namely the Bahagian Zakat dan Fitrah of the Sabah Islamic Religious Council (MUIS) and the Tabung Baitulmal Sarawak of the Sarawak Islamic Council (MIS), are operating following the Maqasid Al-Shariah objectives and several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) agenda. Both zakat institutions should strive for continuous improvement.

Abstract

One of the poverty alleviation programs mostly carried out by zakat institutions is the mustahiq utilization program through stockbreeding empowerment. Geographical conditions, demographics, and the enormous potential for qurban’s meat are a few factors that support zakat-based stockbreeding programs. This study aims to determine whether the stockbreeding programs run by the zakat institution positively impact mustahik. The impact measurement was carried out using mixed methods, namely the BAZNAS Welfare Index (BWI) and the poverty indicator approach to determine the number of mustahik farmers lifted out of poverty. The results show that in 2021 the BWI value of the BAZNAS stockbreeding program is classified under the Good category (0.78) and managed to transform 81% of mustahiq into muzaki. Furthermore, this study will be the first to explain the business process of stockbreeding programs by using a modification of the Business Model Canvas, the Zakat Utilization Model Canvas (ZUMC). We recommend ZUMC to be implemented by zakat institutions to help them design stockbreeding programs to improve the quality of life of mustahiq.

Abstract

Natural disasters that have occurred and resulted in quite a large number of victims include Aceh (2004) and Palu Sigi Donggala (2018). The inevitable loss of life in the event of a disaster causes unclaimed funds to settle in the bank because the owner of the account balance and their heirs are victims of a natural disaster, or their whereabouts are unknown. In previous studies, the handling of unclaimed funds in the banking system was carried out in three ways: left alone, resolved by returning to the owner, and becoming bank income. Meanwhile, according to the Fatwa contained in the Compilation of Sharia Economic Law, a custodian of property/muwaddi' funds or the custodian of assets/funds is not known, then the mustaudi' or those entrusted with the assets/funds shall keep the object of the assets/funds until it is known and/or proven that the muwaddi' has passed away. This study uses a literacy study method to solve the problem of unclaimed funds' property rights. Therefore, it is necessary to clarify the concept of property rights of unclaimed funds so that they can be managed by parties or institutions authorized to manage them and used for the benefit of the people.
