The objective of this study is to investigate the awareness and attitudes of Zakat distribution among university students, with a specific emphasis on the context of University Malaysia Kelantan as the focal point of the investigation. Zakat, which is a fundamental pillar of Islamic finance, has a number of vital roles, two of the most important of which are to provide aid to those who are less fortunate and to stimulate socioeconomic development. In order to shed light on the factors that may influence the awareness of university students to Zakat distribution, the goal of this study is to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of university students about Zakat distribution. As a result of this evaluation, the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of university students will be evaluated. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the demographic aspects and religious backgrounds that may have an impact on the students' understanding of Zakat. The investigation makes use of a mixed-methods methodology, which involves the administration of surveys and interviews. We believe that the findings will add useful insights to academic discourse, the creation of policy, and educational programmes targeted at boosting knowledge and engagement in Zakat distribution among the university community in Malaysia. This is something that we are looking forward to. Furthermore, the findings may have potential ramifications for wider Islamic financial practices and philanthropic activities.
