description | The objective of the study is to explore and examine the forms and means employed by one zakat
institution in Malaysia in discharging its
accountability to the stakeholders. Case study
approach was used in the study involving the use of both of primary and secondary data. The primary
data was gathered via the face to face in-depth
interviews that were conducted with the representatives of the zakat institution. The
secondary data was gathered from different sources
such as the zakat collection and distributions reports of the zakat institution. The interview data was analysed using a manual coding and the secondary data was content analysed using a thematic analysis. The study finds that the zakat institution studied has been discharging two categories of accountability that are financial orformal and social or informal form of accountability. The financial/formal form of
accountability has been discharged mainly via the
zakat collection and distribution reports. Meanwhile, it is observed that the latter category of accountability has been discharged through both of means that are account- and action-based mechanisms, which include zakat collection and distribution reports and various non-zakat society/community programs respectively. |
