Synopsis: Throughout Islamic history, waqf has played a central role in financing education, healthcare, infrastructure, and social welfare. From mosques and schools to hospitals and caravanserais, waqf institutions have demonstrated how faith-based philanthropy can sustain public goods across generations. In the contemporary era, however, the scale and complexity of economic challenges require renewed thinking and innovative financial strategies. This book is written with the conviction that waqf-based investment in stocks and mutual funds, when structured in accordance with Shariah principles, can become a powerful engine for sustainable economic development and inclusive growth.
