Digital Transportation of Zakat Management at BAZNAS in Tegal District

Abstract

With the largest Muslim population in the world, Indonesia has great potential in developing zakat. In the end, zakat also has not been able to solve social welfare problems in fundraising and distribution. This study aims to determine the public's response to the procurement of zakat payments through the media platform from Baznas to Muzaki to make it easier for Muzaki to pay Zakat. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method, the type of data used is primary. The results of the study show that people's interest in paying zakat is quite good, but before there was digital transformation in zakat payments, people were still having trouble paying their zakat at zakat receiving institutions, especially Baznas due to the busyness of the muzakis whose time was used more for work and do their thing. With a change in the digital field of zakat payment or E-Zakat, the community will be more helpful and will choose to pay zakat at zakat receiving institutions. Because they will be more able to streamline their time without leaving their obligations as a devout Muslim.
