Abstract
Effective management of zakat, infaq, alms, and endowments (ZISWAF) is a vital responsibility for Muslims, contributing significantly to the well-being of both Muslims and society. In the digital era, leveraging technology has become crucial for streamlining ZISWAF administration, optimizing the collection, handling, and disbursement of funds. This paper presents a comprehensive examination of the digital technology-based management of ZISWAF at UPZ Masjid Ash Shiyam Gading Depok Residence, encompassing technology applications, advantages, challenges, and their corresponding solutions. To address the time constraints and functional requirements, we developed an Online Donation Application using the Rapid Application Development (RAD) approach. Subsequently, we employed a social informatics research approach to assess the implementation of the information system. Combining quantitative and qualitative methods through a case study approach, data was collected via observations, interviews, and documentation. Descriptive analysis was then applied to gain valuable insights into the technology’s impact on ZISWAF management. The study resulted in the creation of a web-based digital fundraising application dashboard, offering a comprehensive platform to facilitate efficient management and monitoring of online fundraising activities. This platform empowers organizations to enhance donation accumulation, monitor fundraising initiatives, and generate detailed financial reports more effectively.
