Abstract

This research aims to investigate how the fundraising strategies of zakat institutions are implemented, with a case study of LAZISMU Malaysia. This study is qualitative in nature, utilizing a case study approach. The methods employed for data collection include observation, interviews, and documentation. Interviews were conducted with 6 informants consisting of personnel in the Human Resources department, fundraising department, and head of the fundraising department. Data validity was tested using triangulation of sources and triangulation of techniques. The findings of this research indicate that LAZISMU Malaysia has generally implemented fundraising strategies in line with both direct and indirect fundraising methods. Furthermore, these strategies have helped enhance the role of zakat institutions in poverty reduction through various productive zakat programs. However, the research also identified challenges in fundraising implementation, particularly in maximizing fundraising strategies, resulting in Indonesian communities residing around LAZISMU Malaysia being less familiar with LAZISMU. To address these challenges, LAZISMU Malaysia plans to alter its fundraising strategy by conducting educational campaigns targeting the Indonesian community in Malaysia to increase awareness about zakat, infaq, and sadaqah payments.

Abstract

The aim of this research was to determine how to optimize the role of LAZISMU Malaysia in supporting the businesses of zakat recipients, as a means to improve the welfare of the mustahik (zakat beneficiaries). This research was a descriptive qualitative study, with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation review. The research findings concluded that LAZISMU Malaysia has played an active coaching role for small business activities run by zakat recipients. This role is carried out through a mentoring program for mustahik facing difficulties managing their business and capital to increase business income. The steps taken to assist zakat recipients include guidance on managing finances simply by applying an income and expenditure accounting model. Further assistance provided by LAZISMU Malaysia to boost mustahik income involved marketing training in collaboration with Muhammadiyah universities community services in Malaysia. Additionally, LAZISMU Malaysia provides support through the smart display program (arranging business premises) using a modern market approach prioritizing cleanliness, comfort, convenience, and friendliness for all customers. By assisting the businesses of zakat recipients, the mustahik can increase the income generated from the enterprises they run.
