The purpose of this study was to determine the potential of zakat from muzakki at UMRI that can be explored by the Zakat Institute of Infaq and Sadaqah Muhammadiyah (LazisMu). The study was conducted in September 2019. The research method uses a questionnaire that was randomly distributed (simple random sample). The number of respondent samples was calculated based on the Slovin Equation of the total lecturer and staff population (243 people) at UMRI. The results showed that 83% of respondents made zakat payments. Of this amount, 95.9% paid for zakat fitrah. In addition to paying zakat fitrah, they also paid zakat al-mal (32.7%) or zakat income (40.8%). Of all those who paid zakat (al-mal, income, and fitrah), only 20.4% paid to zakat collection institutions (the rest goes to various other places). Of this amount, 80% of respondents paid to LazisMu (the remainder paid to the institutions of other zakat collectors).
