<![CDATA[The COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic restrictions have adversely affected individuals and communities. One potential solution is to use zakat to support public welfare. However, the pandemic's initial phase led to a decrease in the collection of zakat funds. Fortunately, the emergence of FinTech has facilitated an increase in zakat collection. This study examines the payment of zakat through FinTech from the perspective of Islamic Sharia Law. Utilizing scientific literature analysis and Al-Quran studies, the findings suggest that paying zakat through FinTech is not prohibited.

Using FinTech for zakat payments can help alleviate the pandemic's impact on public welfare.]]>
