Synopsis: The accelerating degradation of marine ecosystems, rising sea levels, overfishing, and coastal vulnerability demand innovative and ethically grounded responses. Within the Islamic economic tradition, waqf has long served as a powerful instrument of social welfare, public benefit, and intergenerational continuity. The concept of Blue Waqf emerges at the intersection of environmental stewardship, marine resource sustainability, and Islamic finance, offering a faith-based mechanism to support the blue economy while preserving ecological balance.
