Abstract

Any dedicated community project requires ta’awun (mutual cooperation) and infaq (perpetual charitable contribution) to sustain the projects. Ta’awun (mutual cooperation) and infaq are spiritual driven with strong conviction, commitment, and passion from the community members. There must be a strong motivation to drive people to get into ta’awun (mutual cooperation) and to make infaq who love to achieve share common objectives and outcomes work together. When the community have decided to work on community agriculture projects for the sake of food security, ta’awun (mutual cooperation) and infaq are necessary to operate community agriculture projects on a sustainable basis. This research obtained the views of the five groups within Mukim Setapak Daerah Gombak community who have been involving in community agriculture projects through conversational interview with note-taking about the influence of ta’awun (mutual cooperation) in giving infaq for community agriculture projects. The research uses qualitative conversational interviews. The research applies thematic analysis for the analysis of the interview results. The informants argued that the motivation for the common and share objectives has driven them for ta’awun (mutual cooperation) and infaq creating, maintaining and sustaining the community agriculture projects. The participants gave full commitment in terms of efforts and funding for the community agriculture projects. Ta’awun has magical influence to get infaq and efforts. Future researchers may want to adopt a qualitative case study method involving several communities with vegetable garden projects to deeply explore the influence of cooperation for the infaq.
