An Assessment of The Effectiveness of Islamic Inter-Bank Money Market Instruments in Oman |
Author : Umar Ahmed |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :The objective of this study is to assess the Islamic inter-bank money market instruments in Oman and their associated challenges. Wakalah inter-bank investment, currently the most widely used liquidity management tool by Islamic banks in the inter-bank money market, has some limitations including an uncertain profit rate, risk of bankruptcy, reliance on conventional benchmarks, and lack of secondary market tradability. To address these limitations, the study adopts a qualitative research methodology and employs both library information and secondary data. The results suggest that alternative instruments, such as Mudharabah inter-bank investment, Islamic negotiable Instrument of Deposit, and Wadiah acceptance, could serve as viable alternatives to Wakalah for deposit and placement purposes in the Islamic inter-bank money market. These instruments are grounded in the widely accepted Mudharabah concept and are expected to receive widespread support from stakeholders. The implementation of these alternatives is predicted to enhance market options and activities, thereby supporting the growth and expansion of the Islamic finance sector in Oman. This expansion could enable Islamic banks to support Islamic social institutions such as Zakat and waqf, thereby improving the social welfare of the Muslim community. |

Konsep Kompetensi Keperibadian Amil Zakat |
Author : Ammar Badruddin Romli, Mohd Noor Daud |
Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Pengurusan zakat yang cemerlang bergantung kepada kecekapan dan ketelusan amil dalam pelaksanaan urusan kutipan dan agihan zakat. Kewujudan isu yang membabitkan kompetensi dan kualiti keperibadian amil seperti isu ketirisan dan salah guna kuasa telah mengikis kepercayaan masyarakat terhadap kredibiliti mereka. Islam telah menggariskan amalan keperibadian pekerja yang komprehensif dan holistik meliputi nilai itqan, qawiyy, amin, serta amalan sifat siddiq, amanah, tabligh dan fathonah. Amalan-amalan ini menjadi teras kepada konsep keperibadian amil berdasarkan ciri-ciri mukmin sejati di dalam al-Quran dan al-Hadis iaitu mengabdikan diri kepada Allah SWT, meraikan pembayar zakat, menyantuni asnaf, dan mengamalkan nilai-nilai murni termasuk dalam aspek komunikasi dan penampilan diri. |

Abstract :This study examines the impact of Islamic models of zakat and waqf in reducing poverty among vulnerable during the pandemic era in Bauchi state, Nigeria. As COVID-19 pandemic became a disaster that devastated and impacted everyone in the world directly or indirectly, world leaders and economic experts shifted their plans and policies from the spread of the disease to the economic effects of it, especially on vulnerable in less developed countries like Nigeria where high rate of poverty, low supply and production, as well as loss of jobs and employment for millions became a general issue while the Bauchi state communities considered as most affected areas. The study employed a qualitative method that involved interview with relevant people as well as literature review for generating data. The study findings show that Zakat and Waqf have the potential to effectively combat any crisis or epidemic, regardless of its location, timeframe, population, or religion. If properly collected, maintained, administered, and dispersed to the individuals concerned, zakat and waqf can aid in reducing poverty and serves as a major tool for empowerment among the most disadvantaged vulnerable in Bauchi state Nigeria during and after the pandemic. |

Abstract | Full Text |
Abstract :Sistem pengurusan zakat di Malaysia telah mengalami evolusi besar dalam teknologi. Pada era awal teknologi diperkenalkan dalam pengurusan zakat, kebanyakan organisasi menggunakan laman sesawang sebagai salah satu platform dalam penyampaian maklumat. Melalui penggunaan ICT sebagai satu alat komunikasi dan informasi yang semakin meluas, ia telah memainkan peranan yang penting dalam menyebarkan maklumat dan mempromosikan perkhidmatan zakat ini melalui laman sesawang. Kini, landskap pengurusan zakat berkembang dan berkonsepkan mudah alih dengan wujudnya aplikasi yang diperkenalkan sebagai salah satu medium baharu bagi mengoptimumkan penyampaian dakwah zakat serta bantuan makanan kepada asnaf. Lembaga Zakat Negeri Kedah Darul Aman (LZNK) turut membangunkan aplikasi yang diberi nama Zakat On Touch (ZOT) bagi memudahkan pihak pengurusan terutamanya penolong amil dalam mengemas kini data secara digital dalam menguruskan bantuan makanan. Majoriti amil berumur melebihi 56 sehingga lebih 60 tahun. Terdapat kekangan penerimaan terhadap teknologi dalam golongan kerana mereka mempunyai sikap yang rendah terhadap teknologi. Oleh itu kajian ini akan mengkaji isu dan cabaran aplikasi ZOT dalam kalangan penolong amil dalam menguruskan bantuan makanan. Temu bual mendalam telah dilakukan terhadap lima penolong amil yang berada di daerah Baling. Hasil kajian mendapati terdapat kekangan dalam menggunakan aplikasi ZOT seperti faktor umur, kurangnya latihan, tiada penguatkuasaan dalam penggunaan dan kemudahan fasiliti terhadap rangkaian dan peralatan. |
