Cash Waqf Management Model in Education Environment

Abstract

The management of waqf in Indonesia is being widely studied, with all instruments involved, including the government which has established the Indonesian Waqf Board (BWI). This aims to restore the function of waqf as it was during the heyday of Islam. In reality, public support for the movement carried out by the government is still not optimal. This can be seen from the lack of public awareness of waqf. This can be improved by increasing waqf literacy in the education environment, besides that the campus is also the right place to encourage social financial inclusion, especially waqf and become a place for students to practice waqf directly. This research uses descriptive qualitative research methods with literature study analysis methods. Data sources are obtained from scientific references such as books, journals, official websites, and other literature reference sources that support the research results. The result of this research is a proposed innovation model of cash waqf management in education that can be applied in the educational environment. We name this system "Wakifu". The word Wakifu comes from the word Wakif, which is a person who gives his property to be represented.
