This research examines the governance of the National Amil Zakat Agency of Barito Kuala Regency as an effort to optimize transparent, professional, and sharia-compliant zakat management. Although South Kalimantan has the highest zakat potential in Kalimantan Island, its zakat realization is still far from the target, reflecting the challenges of public trust and the effectiveness of the institution's governance. This study aims to evaluate the governance of Barito Kuala National Amil Zakat Agency using three main indicators: Zakat Core Principles Index, Sharia Compliance Index of Zakat Management Organization, and Financial Ratio Analysis. Using a qualitative-descriptive approach, data was collected through observation and internal document analysis. The result shows that the implementation of Zakat Core Principle scores 0.44 (good enough category), while sharia compliance scores 0.72 (good category), and financial ratio shows high efficiency and effectiveness in collecting and distributing zakat. Important findings reveal that the suboptimal documentation of Operational Procedur Standard, absence of internal audit, and high operational burden become obstacles to ideal governance. Although the management of zakat in Barito Kuala National Amil Zakat Agency has been running according to regulations and sharia principles, improvement of institutional structure, documentation, efficiency of human resources, and transparency of financial statements are needed. This research provides a practical contribution as an internal evaluation of the institution and a scientific contribution in the development of accountable and sustainable zakat management in Indonesia.

The aim of this study is to examine the philosophical and practical differences between conventional and Islamic financial reports. Laporan keuangan konvensional disusun berdasarkan prinsip-prinsip ekonomi kapitalis, dengan orientasi pada laba dan kepentingan pemegang saham. Meanwhile, Islamic financial reports are based on Islamic principles that emphasise justice, transparency, and social responsibility, as well as holding financial activities accountable not only to humans, but also to Allah SWT. The research method used was qualitative descriptive-comparative through a literature study of accounting standards and related journals. The results of the study show differences in reporting objectives, report structure, basic principles, transaction measurement methods, and stakeholder orientation. Laporan syariah mencakup unsur-unsur tambahan, seperti laporan zakat, qardh, dan tanggung jawab sosial, yang tidak ditemukan dalam sistem konvensional. Memahami perbedaan ini sangatlah penting untuk mempromosikan praktik pelaporan keuangan yang tidak hanya berorientasi pada keuntungan, tetapi juga menjunjung tinggi nilai-nilai etika dan keberlanjutan.

Financial reports are vital for investment and financial decision-making, as they reflect a company's financial performance and provide key insights for investors and institutions. However, challenges such as accounting errors, financial manipulation, and non-compliance with accounting standards can impact the quality of financial reports (QFR). Auditors play a crucial role in ensuring QFR by examining and verifying financial statements, enhancing investor confidence, financial stability, and economic growth. This study examines the role of auditors in improving QFR in commercial banks listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange. Using a descriptive analytical approach, the research reviews prior studies and analyzes data from 15 commercial banks operating in the Iraq Stock Exchange from 2015 to 2021. Hypotheses were tested using Eviews-12 software. Findings indicate that auditors influence QFR through corporate governance, particularly via the board of directors, which plays a crucial role in ensuring sound auditing practices. Board independence and management ownership significantly reduce financial manipulation, aiding informed investment decisions.
