Rohayati Hussin

Abstract: Ministry of Higher Education (MoHE) has executed Waqf as one of the ten shifts in Malaysia Education Blueprint 2015-2025 or MEB (HE) in a way to reduce the reliance of universities on the government resources. In fact, several universities have already implemented Waqf in their institutions before the government announcing the new MEB (HE). Though several universities already implemented Waqf beforehand nonetheless, the approaches are not standard besides different management are practiced. The implementation of Waqf in Malaysian universities is perceived in various approaches. Therefore, this study seeks to focus on the overview of Waqf in Malaysian universities besides discussing ways forward toward the sustainability of Waqf in future. This study adopts a qualitative approach by collecting data from primary sources as well as secondary sources. The data collected in this study are analyzed based on content analysis.
