Zakat is the third pillar of Islam that all Muslims must follow. Meanwhile, taxes are one of the most important sources of revenue for the Indonesian government, with income tax (PPh) being one of them. Therefore, Indonesian Muslims are required to pay both, taxes and zakat, known as dual responsibility.

As a result of the community service, participants able to demonstrate the zakat mechanism as a income tax (PPh) deduction. Furthermore, residents of Sukosari Village, in particular, can avoid double taxation (the obligation to pay zakat and taxes).
