Attitude towards participation in cash waqf among Muslim staff in UTM (Skudai) / Dzulkhairy Mahudin

Waqf creates great benefits not only for the endower but also for the whole society. Endowment of waqf is generally known in terms of property but little attention given to endowment of cash waqf. This paper aim to investigate the attitude towards participation in cash waqf among Muslim staff in UTM (Skudai). The findings of this paper are based on 211 samples. Descriptive analysis, exploratory factor analysis and regression analysis are used to analyse the data. The results indicate that individual religiosity, trust in waqf institutions and convenience to endow are antecedents of Muslim attitude towards participation in cash waqf, which consequently leads to individual intention to participate in the practice. The study provides a useful source of information to relate parties for instance the waqf institution and Islamic regulatory body in executing effective strategy to promote cash waqf as well as reinforcement of systematic collection procedures that can benefit the community.
