“…The COVID-19 pandemic has a negative impact on the economy of Malaysians, especially in the Federal Territory as most of them live in urban areas and most of them earn from trade (Hasbulah et al, 2022a).

Apart from that, Zakat Penang is attempting to mitigate the COVID-19's consequences, such as the distribution of zakat to the Penang health sector (Hasbulah et al, 2022).

The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the increasing number of zakat distribution while the collection of zakat is predicted to be decreased (Hasbulah et al, 2022). As a matter of fact, zakat collection strategies must be modified to generate more revenue in order to balance with the distribution of zakat.…”
