The main problem is further elaborated into sub-problems, namely: 1) How is the concept of understanding swallowing zakat expenditure understood by the people of Enrekeng Village, Soppeng Regency?, 2) How are the responses of religious leaders and local officials to the obligation to issue zakat on swallow business results in Enrekeng Village, Soppeng Regency? , and 3) How does Islamic law review the swallow's zakat? This type of research is a qualitative field (field research) using a research approach, namely: a normative approach, a normative theological approach and a sociological approach. Then the source of this research data is taken from Primary Data in the form of interviews with Swallow Entrepreneurs in Enrekeng Village. and Secondary Data in the form of data taken from the responses of the Head of Enrekeng Village, village officials, religious leaders and community leaders of Enrekeng Village on the obligation to issue swallow zakat and literature studies related to the problems studied. Furthermore, the data collection methods used were observation, interviews, and documentation as well as other reference searches. The data processing and data analysis techniques were carried out through three stages, namely: data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of this study indicate that the understanding of swallowing zakat expenditure in Enrekeng Village, Soppeng Regency is still far from the rules and provisions of Islamic law. Swallow's nest entrepreneurs issue their zakat in different ways, in analogy to zakat maal, income zakat, property zakat, livestock zakat and some even do not issue zakat at all. Even from the village head, village officials, religious leaders and community leaders, they do not understand about the classification of swallow zakat so that there is no delivery or socialization about the obligation to issue zakat from swallows. In fact, zakat on swallows can be paid for by zakat on agriculture and zakat on trade. Likewise, the swiftlet business is also seasonal and waits for the results and the amount of zakat issued by agricultural zakat is as much as 5%. While the amount of trade zakat is 2.5% because there are many other expenses that must be incurred, such as current assets, current liabilities, profits, basic needs and so on.
