Journal Title: Journal of Economics and Business - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
This study was aimed to identify the level of objective wellbeing of the productive zakat recipients in Baitul Mal Aceh Indonesia. A descriptive quantitative approach using an average score to measure the level of objective wellbeing was carried out. A total of 498 productive zakat recipients were involved in this study. The findings showed that the average level of objective well-being of the productive zakat recipient for six dimensions (economic, house, health, educational, vehicle and time) is still moderate. Even for age groups ≥64; the barber and low educated respondents are still at a lower level of objective wellbeing. Therefore, Baitul Mal Aceh needs to increase the amount of microloans together with the provision of business expertise and management courses to enhance the efficiency of objective wellbeing of productive zakat recipients.
