Abstract

Mosque funds in Muslim countries where Tabarru‘āt (donations) operates should have had an enormous impact on Muslim empowerment and poverty alleviation. However, these funds appear to be managed ineffectively. In Malaysia, the setup of Tabung Masjid (TM) has not effectively achieved its goals partly due to a lack of awareness of the Islamic jurisprudential perspectives on TM funds or partly due to the uninformed ways in which these funds are managed. This paper assesses the ways in which funds generated from TM in Terengganu, Malaysia are being managed from the Maqāṣid al-Sharī‘ah perspective.
