The issues are how the efforts of Baznas Lubuk Linggau in implementing Law Number 23 Year 2011 and what are the problems in its implementation. The results show that Baznas Lubuk Linggau strives to empower zakat funds optimally through the Smart Lubuklinggau Program, Lubuk linggau Peduli, Lubuk linggau Taqwa, Lubuk linggau Sehat, Lubuk linggau Makmur, and Lubuk linggau Amil, as well as proposing a Mayor Regulation on zakat.
