Abstract

Studies found that the potential of waqf in developing the education level of Muslim society is very significant, especially in emerging countries. History also proves the success of waqf in managing and upgrading higher education institutions in countries like Maghribi and Egypt. Waqf education in other countries like Singapore, Indonesia, and Turkeye also greatly contributes to the talents. With good governance and efficient management, waqf can contribute to the development of the education system, while administration structure and community engagement are also among the factors. Sustainability of the waqf education thus, may have contributed from all the above factors which was discussed in this paper. Objective of this review is to highlight some success stories of waqf in higher education. Five countries represented the Asia and Africa region are briefly reviewed on their waqf education history and development. The revival of this type of waqf education shows that it does not need to be independent by itself but needs support by the countries’ culture and political system
