This issue is directly related to how ‘Pusat Zakat’ administers ‘zakat’ throughout the country. Thus this study attempts to examine the problems contributed to the ineffectiveness of ‘zakat’ management which is believed to need urgent reformation and improvements. This research is conducted through library research by analyzing journals, articles, annual reports and also through an interview with an expert in this matter. The research indicated that internal management and ‘zakat’ collections and distributions failures were the main reasons of its incompetence. The paper recommends that PPZ Malaysia should consistently observe their performance on both sectors to ensure its success as a body that functions as social justice. It is hoped that this paper will initiate more researches in making the PPZ an efficient, effective and respectable organization.
