“…Its function is to manifest the potential and economic benefits of waqf assets for worship and other people's prosperity. Waqf practices began in the period of the Prophet Mohammad, and was later institutionalised in the eighth century A.D. (Darus et al, 2017) In Islamic knowledge, especially in the holy Quran and hadith, there is no specific information about waqf, so in explaining it the Quran uses the term "infaq fi sabilillah" to explain how vital waqf and infaq are in Islam. "You do not come to goodness before you spend what you loved" (Q.S.…”

Waqf is an Islamic asset endowment to be kept in faith and used for charitable or religious purposes. Its function is to demonstrate the potential and economic benefits of waqf assets for worship and other people’s prosperity. Indonesia has great opportunities to raise more significant amounts of waqf funds. One strategy that appears effective with regard to waqf, especially cash waqf, is to provide an online service. Hence, this research attempts to analyse whether the perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, perceived religiosity, and amount of information influences user acceptance of using an online waqf application process by implementing the technology acceptance model (TAM). Moreover, the study incorporates structural equation modelling (SEM) to interpret the path analysis of the model. The study fills the gap in the literature concerning the context of use of the technology acceptance model for online waqf in Indonesia. We find that the variables that directly influence user acceptance of online waqf application are perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use, with perceived ease of use influencing perceived usefulness. In addition, perceived ease of use is influenced by the amount of information. Furthermore, the majority of respondents prefer to have projects such as mosques, Islamic boarding schools, schools, and hospital construction projects. To increase user acceptance, online waqf developers should provide more information about the application process and develop more user-friendly software with many features. Moreover, regulators should provide incentives for online waqf developers to maximise cash waqf collection.

“… Banking Ramli and Jalil (2014) Recommend that other corporations cooperate with the Islamic banking industry on waqf, for instance, by Perbadanan Wakaf Selangor (PWS) and Bank Muamalat Malaysia Berhad (BMMB). Darus et al. (2017) Corporate social responsibility (CSR) within Islamic Banking prioritizes more the internal environment, as opposed to the external, when it comes to waqf involvement in the welfare of society because CSR has limitations.…”

In this paper, the literature on Islamic endowment funds (awqaf) was surveyed. The data suggest that banking, accountability, law, and norms constitute most of the coverage in this body of literature. The finance topic, with 35% coverage, dominated the literature, whereas history (with 6% coverage) recorded the least interest. In this sample, the second most popular theme was related to economic development (25% coverage). Also discovered was that 59% of the papers employed a normative approach, and the balance adopted an empirical approach. A direct benefit of this study is that it provides input for government policy and directions for future researchers.
