Abstract

Purpose: to evaluate the effectiveness of ZISWAF (Zakat, Infaq, Sadaqah, Wakaf) utilization within the MISYKAT program at DT Peduli KPP Tasikmalaya. Specifically, the study aims to investigate the extent to which ZISWAF funds contribute to the empowerment of the community, particularly in the micro-business sector supported by KOPMU-DT.

Data analysis techniques involve identifying the effectiveness index of ZISWAF utilization through data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing/verification. The effectiveness of ZISWAF utilization is measured using effectiveness theory, specifically examining technical, internal, and external approaches.
