Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP) on Zakat Management in Higher Education

Abstract

Zakat is a type of assistance designed to lessen the burden experienced by people in need. The zakat fund given to Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) students has been managed by the Zakat, Sedekah, and Waqf Unit (ZAWAF). ZAWAF has shared crucial information about zakat via a web-based zakat application. However, some students were not well-informed about zakat distribution. The researchers were asked to look into it more deeply.  A framework based on Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP) will be used to understand people's awareness of zakat management and further help to improve the existing ZAWAF delivery service at UiTM.
