Cash Waqf in Morocco: Opportunities and Challenges

Abstract

This paper attempted to investigate different aspects of cash waqf in Morocco including shari’ah background, legal lesgislation and its modern applications.  An online survey questionnaire was designed and distributed among 100 participants representing different educational and professional backgrounds. Secondary data was obtained from literature study based on books, articles, reports besides e-books and web sites. The findings indicate that cash waqf, if applied properly in Morocco, will help in reducing unemployment and alleviating poverty and therefore increase confidence among more Moroccans to contribute to the economic growth and to the welfare of their society. A number of recommendations and suggestions was proposed to the Moroccan Government to reform the current structure of waqf to be more inclusive
