| Summary: | Waqf is getting increase attention recently not only from the public but also in institutions because of the benefits it gives such as economic growth, education, social transfonnation. Unfortunately, this infonnation is not being promoted due to the lack of awareness ofWaqf in public. There are a lot of misinformation regarding Waqf, some of them are about how Waqf only gives benefit to the Muslims and Zakat is the only Islamic financial instrument to help the society. Therefore, this study would like to examine the relationship and the effect of knowledge, benefit, promotion, and social disposition among the Muslim's perception towards Waqf. Using self-administrated and convenience sampling technique, total of 138 respondents among Muslims community within Kuching city are involved in this study. Empirical result indicate that knowledge and promotion have stronger effect among the Muslims community in Kuching rather than the awareness of benefit and social disposition. Thus, more awareness in Muslims community knowledge and promotion activities is needed so that more Muslims will involve in doing their Waqf. Implication and future research suggestions are also discussed. |
