Abstract

Sustainable waqf property calls for the sustained yield, benefits, and enhanced value, aligned with donors' intentions and recipients' benefits under waqf trusteeship. As much research on waqf concentrates on adapting the UN SDGs, this study performs an SLR to explore the potential for future research, apart from the well-established link to the UN SDGs as prevalent in the literature. SLR was limitedly performed on ‘waqf’ AND ‘sustainability’, in the Scopus database, analysing seven articles following a rigorous selection process. Findings revealed two relevant themes: waqf sustainability activities and enablers, reflecting future research opportunities within the subject of waqf and sustainability.
