Analysis on Zakat Knowledge Awareness among the Bangsamoro People of Southern Philippines

Author(s) Norziana Mantorino Daud

Abstract This study conducts a comprehensive analysis of Zakat knowledge awareness among the Bangsamoro people in the Southern Philippines. Zakat, a fundamental tenet in Islam, mandates the contribution of a portion of one's wealth to specified organizations as outlined in the Holy Quran. Despite the pivotal role of Zakat in Islamic doctrine, uncertainties persist regarding the depth of awareness, particularly in less developed economies. This research systematically evaluates three dimensions of Zakat awareness—recognition of Zakat as an Islamic obligation, understanding of its diverse forms, and awareness of recipients—among the Bangsamoro population. Through a meticulously organized survey involving 226 participants, the study reveals unexpectedly high levels of Zakat awareness in the region. These finding challenges preconceptions rooted in widespread poverty and low education levels. The study concludes by proposing that the newly established administration in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) can leverage this heightened awareness for transformative societal benefits by instituting structured mechanisms for Zakat collection and distribution. The research contributes valuable insights into Zakat awareness in less developed economies and underscores the potential for strategic policy interventions to unleash the transformative power of Zakat in fostering societal development.
