(GOVERNANCE OF ZAKAT INSTITUTION IN PENANG: ROLES AND CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE ECONOMY OF THE ASNAF IN PENANG)
Abstract
Zakat institution is a body that manages zakat, appointed by Islamic government of a state or country to manage and administer the collection and distribution of zakat, as well as any matters pertaining to those in need. In Malaysia, zakat management is under the authority and responsibility of Duli Yang Maha Mulia (DYMM) Sultan or Raja. There are states which constitutionally headed by sultan or raja, for example, Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang, and Kedah; the management and administration of zakat are carried out by State Islamic Religious Council (MAIN) and the state government administration will be the representative of sultan or raja. While for the states that are not led by sultan or raja, such as Malacca, Sabah, Sarawak and Penang, zakat management is under the responsibility of Seri Paduka Yang Di-Pertuan Agong (SPBA). Even so, in some states like Malacca, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Pahang, Negeri Sembilan, Selangor, Kedah and Penang, the management and administration of zakat are carried out by the corporate zakat institution. In Penang however, the management and administration of zakat institution are unique due to the government belongs to non-Muslim. The question is, how the governance of zakat institution in Penang is implemented? What are the role and contribution of zakat institution in Penang in developing the economy and politics of the asnaf people in Penang in terms of economy, education, welfare and social? Based on the problem statement, this study was carried out to identify and analyse the governance of zakat institutions in Penang; their roles and contributions. This study implemented two types of data collection; first, document study method; and second, interview method. The collected data were then analysed using textual analysis method. Three conclusions could be drawn out based on the analyses. Firstly, the management and administration of zakat institutions in Penang is under the responsibility of the Islamic Religious Council of Penang (MAINPP). Secondly, Zakat Pulau Pinang (ZPP) is an institution established by MAINPP to administer the collection and distribution of zakat in Penang. Although ZPP is established as a Sdn. Bhd. (private) company, it is still under the supervision of MAINPP and Penang Islamic Religious Affairs EXCO. Thirdly, the governance of zakat institution in Penang plays the role in improving the economy and politics of the asnaf group in Penang, especially in the field of education, skills, welfare, health and social.
