Abstract

The aim of this research is to determine the practice of paying zakat infaq and alms carried out by university academics in the city of Medan who are then referred to as Muslim scholars and the perspective of the university academic community towards zakat management organizations. This research will examine in depth the relationship between the perspectives held by the academic community of North Sumatra universities regarding zakat management organizations to the practice of paying zakat infaq and alms. This research will show the contribution of universities to the management of zakat infaq and alms in North Sumatra. This research uses a qualitative research method. The data collection technique in this research was by distributing questionnaires to the university community in North Sumatra. The author will explain in depth the findings that the author has obtained in the field, and then provide an interpretation, and arrange it systematically so that it is easy to understand. The research results show that interaction between Muslim scholars and zakat institutions is still very minimal. This can be seen from the two-way relationship where there are still very many Muslim scholars who channel their zakat infaq alms through zakat institutions, and vice versa, namely zakat institutions do not involve Muslim scholars in managing zakat infaq alms funds.
