Abstract

Waqf is a charitable institution in Islamic law that encompasses various forms of goodness, compassion, and solidarity. Its primary purpose is to address the needs of the underprivileged, support education, healthcare, and social welfare for both Muslims and non-Muslims alike. This article examines the concept of wakaf muaqqat (temporary waqf) -a form of wakaf with a defined duration- exploring its contemporary relevance, scholarly opinions, international fatwas, and legislative frameworks across Islamic nations. The article identifies several reasons why wakaf muaqqat is increasingly needed in the modern era, particularly in the post COVID-19 economic landscape. These include its suitability for wealthy donors who hold movable assets such as cash, shares, and bonds; its flexibility in accommodating diverse donor circumstances; and its capacity to attract broader public participation while increasing beneficiary numbers. Contemporary scholars and international bodies including Majma' al-Fiqh al-Islami al-Dauli and the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI) have affirmed the permissibility of wakaf muaqqat, grounding their positions in maqasid shariah. A comparative legislative analysis reveals that numerous Islamic countries including Kuwait, Indonesia, Morocco, Lebanon, Algeria, the UAE, Libya, and Egypt formally recognise wakaf muaqqat through legislation, prescribing minimum and maximum durations and specifying eligible asset types. In Malaysia, while most states have yet to fully adopt wakaf muaqqat, Johor, Sarawak, and Terengganu have already enacted relevant legal provisions. The article concludes that international legislative experiences should serve as a reference for Malaysian policymakers in developing more comprehensive and practical legislation to strengthen wakaf muaqqat at the national level.
