The organization operates under the principles of transparency and accountability, and it strives to ensure that all donations are used efficiently and effectively.
One of the highlights of the report is the amount of Zakat and Sadaqah that was collected and distributed in 2022.

This assistance included food aid, medical care, education, and livelihood support.
The report also highlights ZFI's efforts to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has had a significant impact on communities in Indonesia.
