| dc.description.abstract | This article analyses how Islamic philanthropy is translated and reiterated in contemporary
Indonesia and contextualized in the international arena. It examines the experience of an
Islamic philanthropic organization, Dompet Dhuafa (DD), in defining and addressing types
of zakat beneficiaries by, among other things, addressing unfortunate Indonesian migrant
workers residing in Hong Kong. The effort of DD to expand the types of zakat recipients
reflects a new development of Islamic philanthropy activism in Indonesia. There is a substantial
change in how zakat is formulated and practiced among Indonesian Muslims in
general, and in particular Indonesian migrant workers overseas. Islamic philanthropic organizations,
such as DD, have functioned not only as intermediaries between benefactors in
Indonesia and Indonesian migrant workers overseas but also as energizers to encourage the
zakat practice among fortunate migrant workers to help their unfortunate fellows overseas. | en_US |
