This book is expected to enrich the literature of the dai and the preacher, so that it can preach zakat properly. This book is also important to propagate zakat as the pillars of Islam which has a strategic role in the economic development of the people. And invite people to zakat through the official zakat institutions that have been endorsed by the government.
"Zakat requires ijtihad or thought constantly to keep up with the times. Both in the aspects of management, the object of zakat, and in the mechanism of distribution," said Director of Coordination of Distribution, Utility, Renbang and National Training Baznas, Nasir Tajang.
On that basis, it is very important and even obligatory for Baznas to prepare literature references. Both to the da'i, zakat activists, as well as to the Islamic community in general, related to the development of zakat management.
"We see that the existing preach books have been minimal in discuss the issue of zakat. Still limited to studies of classical jurisprudence," he explained.
