Summary:Although zakat is an extremely studied topic in Islamic Social Finance, a systematic, comprehensive, and diverse review in the domain of zakat is lacking. This paper attempts to conduct a systematic review on the status of zakat literature, taking Malaysia as a case study.

This study examined several aspects of literature review which include research type, research approach and subject area. The outcome of this article is to provide direction for future studies.
