ANALISIS IMPLEMENTASI PENDISTRIBUSIAN ZAKAT FITRAH OLEH AMIL DI KELURAHAN BANJARSARI KECAMATAN METRO UTARA KOTA METRO

Abstract

Zakat is an absolute obligation of one's Islam.
There are two zakats, namely zakat maal and zakat fitrah.
The discussion on zakat fitrah carried out by previous
scholars still needs to be developed, in accordance with the
times. Some Muslims living today are still confused about
the empowerment of zakat fitrah distribution. Efforts to
apply zakat fitrah optimally, it requires proper distribution
empowerment. Zakat fitrah can be applied optimally if the
zakat fitrah receives support from various parties, namely
Muzakki, Mustahiq, Amil Zakat and support from the
Government
This study aims to describe the implementation of the
distribution of zakat fitrah by amils in Banjarsari Village,
North Metro District, Metro City. This study used
interview and documentary data collection techniques.
Interviews were conducted with Muzakkis, Mustahiq, and
Amil Zakat. The documentary was conducted on data used
to trace the distribution of zakat fitrah empowerment. All
these data are analyzed inductively.
Based on the results of the study, the distribution of zakat
fitrah empowerment in Banjarsari Village, North Metro
District, Metro City, is carried out consumptive zakat fitrah
empowerment. Meanwhile, the productive empowerment
of zakat fitrah has not been implemented so far. This is due
to the lack of public understanding of the distribution of
zakat fitrah empowerment. As a result, Amil Zakat
distributed its zakat fitrah not on target. In addition, the
empowerment of zakat fitrah has not been able to empower
the community's economy because the benefits of zakat
can only be felt to meet short-term needs. So from year to
year Mustahiq's economy has not changed.
