PERSEPSI ULAMA TENTANG ZAKAT PRODUKTIF DIKOTA BANJARMASIN
Abstract
Abstract: Poverty is a multidimensional problem that can be caused by several reasons, generally caused by economic problems. From the survey results of BPS South Kalimantan per September 2014 was recorded that poverty in South Kalimantan Province is 4.68% (62.509 people) of South Kalimantan population, 3.790.071 people. From these, especially the poor in the city of Banjarmasin recorded 28.59 million people (11.66%). In addition to government programs to reduce poverty, one of the solutions that can be utilized in the perspective of Islam is zakat leverage, particularly productive zakat. To move this productive charity needs to be synergy and synchronization of the various parties, in this case are: the Government, the Ministry of Religious Affairs, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI), and the Organization of the Islamic Religious including more specific ie BAZNAS. With the synergy and syn- chronization of the various parties, it is certain the collection and distribution of zakat, especially productive zakat, would be more efficient and effective to support the prevention and alleviation of poverty and to achieve welfare for the people.
