THE COMPLIANCE WITH THE OBLIGATION TO PAY ZAKAT ON INCOME AMONG ISLAMIC EDUCATION TEACHERS IN KEDAH
Main Article Content
Abstract
Beginning in the late 1970s, zakat on income was debated in the Malaysian context. It was eventually accepted and started to be applied in Malaysia in the early 1990s. Zakat on employment income is required for people who are eligible to release zakat, according to the National Fatwa Committee's Fatwa Conference (Muzakarah), which was held on June 22, 1997. Nowadays, zakat institutions in Malaysia have undergone a paradigm shift as income zakat is brought into being as a fresh source. Zakat on income, including teachers in Kedah, especially the Islamic education options for certain reasons. Owing to this issue, a survey was done to determine how many Islamic general educators in Kedah complied with the requirement to give zakat on income. This study's design was created utilising a quantitative technique and a population of 141 respondents who were Kedah-based Islamic Education teachers. Its sample also included conversations with the Vice Chief Executive Officer, Dakwah, and Collecting LZNK. The results show that the level of compliance to pay income zakat is at a moderate level. Therefore, LZNK needs to find initiatives to encourage the largest group of Islamic Education teachers and this needs to be given attention. This is important because zakat on income not only helps the community in need but also to clean the income earned as well as an act of worship that has to be done for one to be prepared in the hereafter.
