Abstract

This study not only measures the level of welfare of the community but also mustahiq community members in Mekarwangi Village after the intervention of ICD-based zakat program. Recently, this research is still infrequent; further, there is no standardized assessment tool to measure the welfare of mustahiq community. This paper used Zakat Village Index instrument to measure the welfare of mustahiq community and CIBEST model to measure welfare of mustahiq community members.By using mixed method approach and multi stage cluster sampling by an interview by questioner.The results showed that the ICD-based zakat utilization program in Mekarwangi Village was quite successful but not significant in improving community welfare with the result of the Zakat village index of 0.59 influenced by the low economic dimension by 0.32 and the spread of the ICD program of Rumah Zakat that has not been evenly distributed in Mekarwangi Village. After intervention by ICD-based zakat program is able to increase welfare index of the mustahiq community members by 67 percent. The material poverty index, spiritual poverty and absolute poverty index can also be reduced by 36 percent, 11 percent and 20 percent,respectively.
