Exploring factors influencing cash waqf management: A study among University Malaysia Kelantan students

Cash waqf is the best Islamic waqf innovation that can be used in today's technological age. In June 2013, the Malaysian Cash Waqf System (SWTM) was launched by Yayasan Waqaf Malaysia. In addition to offering electronic payment options for waqf payments, this platform also enables waqfs operating within the public sector to make online salary deductions. The download of waqf donation transactions is feasible for waqfs that have been duly registered with the SWTM. This process indirectly enables the endowment to acquire a record of the transactions that have been executed. In this study, the research was conducted in examining knowledge, awareness, perception, acceptance and practices towards application of cash waqf management among University Malaysia Kelantan (UMK) students. The main objective of this study is to investigate the extent to which cash waqf management can be carried out and applied at University Malaysia Kelantan. In order to achieve the objective, the researcher collected data through a questionnaire distributed to UMK students as primary data. In order to obtain secondary data, the researcher has researched previous articles and journals to strengthen the findings of the study. Cash waqf should be given attention in institutions of higher learning because of the many benefits obtained especially by the asnaf and B40 groups.
