| Summary: | Along with the revival of waqf (plural awqal) institution, the attention to the call for good
governance and best practices of waqf has emerged. It is widely agreed that the best practice
of good governance should be adopted as it is one of the critical success factors for
revitalizing awqaf institutions. As far as waqf study is concerned, there is no existing study
on waqf governance. This is probably because the conception of governance was used
exclusively in the commercial sectors. In fact, governance in charitable and not-for profit
organizations is much related to demonstrating accountability to stakeholders. This paper
attempts to review some Islamic concepts and values which underpin the governance
framework for awqaf institutions and thus demonstrate the Islamic accountability of
mutawalli (awqaf manager). |
