Abstract

Cash waqf is one form of waqf using cash. It plays an important role in generating funds for the  country's economic development in terms of education, health, and social welfare. Therefore, the  management and administration related to cash waqf need to be emphasised and streamlined for the  continuation of its benefits. In relation to that, the aim of this study is to find out the implementation of  cash waqf in the State of Perlis, which is implemented by the Council of Islamic Religion and Malay  Customs of Perlis (MAIPs) as the sole trustee of waqf property in this state. This study is a qualitative  study using the semi-structured interview method. The interviews were conducted with four selected  officials at MAIPs. The results of this study found that the methods of collecting cash waqf funds by  MAIPs are through payments at waqf counters, waqf funds, salary deductions by government  employees, and payments through bank accounts. This study also explains the distribution of cash waqf  revenue by MAIPs. Based on the information obtained from the MAIPs officers, it turns out that the  implementation of cash waqf has greatly benefited the community. Through the results of this study, it  can give insight and spark ideas for the next researcher to carry out further studies on waqf, especially  regarding cash waqf, such as the role of cash waqf specifically in sectors of interest in Malaysia.
