Malaysia is a Muslim majority country with an estimated Muslim population in Malaysia of 20, 192 700 out of the total population in Malaysia. This amount reflects the need for food security including the supply of halal food for the needs of the Muslim community. Malaysia is also the most popular Islamic tourism destination in the global Muslim tourism market due to access of halal food through halal-certified restaurants. However, Malaysia still depends on imports products in various food commodities including rice, milk and dairy products, beef and mutton. Total food imports reached about RM45.4 billion compared to Malaysia's exports just only about RM27 billion leaving a deficit of more than RM18 billion. These imports are expected to increase further but there is still a shortage of supply from local sources in Malaysia. To meet the demand of domestic market, Malaysia needs to formulate a plan to improve the sustainability of food security, including protein sources from cat...

Previous studies revealed several issues relating to the leasing of waqf properties in the aspects of the concepts and rulings, lease assessment rate, leasing contract and agreement. The overall management and administration of waqf property by State Religious Councils (SRC) are not yet discussed satisfactorily. This study therefore explored the practice of leasing of waqf properties by SRCs in Malaysia. Data and information for this study were collected through interviews and documented reports. Data were analysed based on inductive and deductive method. The study focused mainly on problems in the implementation and practice of waqf rental in Malaysia. The study found that there are still many shortcomings that the SRCs need to investigate seriously. It is proposed that a detailed study on waqf property management should be conducted for the sake of the ummah.

4 Abstract: Current practice indicates that due to historical background which separate Islamic and Civil law, crime prevention within Islamic financial criminology framework is obscured. Conflicts of power exist among authoritative bodies; Civil and Shari'ah Court, Shari'ah Advisory Boards, National and State Fatwa Councils shows insufficient legal system to support the growth Islamic Financial Institutions in Malaysia. As a result, Islamic financial crime prevention is done within the scope of conventional framework. Therefore, this paper aims to study the prevention method taken by Malaysia. This research suggests that the best approach for now is to harmonize between civil court and sharia court. Better understanding from both courts will provide a comprehensive framework to prevent Islamic financial crime in Malaysia.

Food delivery services are popular and have become a necessity among Malaysians, especially during the pandemic Covid-19. Nevertheless, there are several issues faced by food delivery services primarily related to halal status and food hygiene. Using qualitative research methodology, this study attempts to identify issues in the scope of halal food delivery and its integrity. The findings showed that there are notable issues related to the food industry and delivery services that could be overcome by adhering to the control procedures issued by the National Security Council (MKN) and Islamic principles under the purview of Maqasid Shariah.

Crowdfunding is an internet supported way to run businesses or raise money either in the form of donations or various investments from multiple individuals. This new form of fundraising technique has emerged since the wake of the 2008 financial crisis and its popularity has accelerated due to the impact of COVID 19 pandemic. With various constraints in obtaining financing from financial institutions, entrepreneurs started to look for capital generated from the other sources. The resources are still limited, but the Muslim crowdfunding ecosystem is diversifying from the most basic reward based to social lending, with an eye to the fintech. Using a quantitative research methodology, this paper uses secondary data research method to gain a broader understanding on the linkage between crowdfunding, fintech and NGO-I.

Modern management practice has put greater emphasize on the principles of accountability and transparency. Along with the revival of Islamic institutions, there are call by the stakeholder for management of waqf institutions to adopt modern management practice to improve their efficiency in managing waqf asset. As part of good governance and best practices of waqf institutions, management of risk is fundamental to the proper functioning of any institution including waqf to ensure the accountability of mutawalli (waqf manager) and transparency of the management. Studies on risk management practices on Islamic institution indicate that risk come across in many different ways; financial, personnel, program and capital expenditure decisions due to interactions with economic, political and social environments. However, the dissimilarity of management practices of waqf asset could be due to the absence of risk management function for waqf institutions. This paper aims at exploring the maj...

Gold is a precious metal that symbolizes wealth. Gold has been used for various purposes such as money for trade and jewellery for women. More recently, gold has been used as an investment tool through the purchase of gold bar, gold coins and gold-back savings accounts. Ownership of gold after fulfilling certain term and conditions entails a Muslim to pay for zakat as prescribed by Islamic law. Therefore, this article aims to look at the concept of zakat on gold in the lights of discussion of classical fiqh and to adapt to the current development of the use of gold in society. Next we look at the practice and implementation of gold zakat in zakat institutions in Malaysia. This qualitative study was conducted using data collection and data analysis methods. The method of data collection is done through library research. The data obtained were analysed based on inductive, deductive and comparative methods to obtain study results. The results of this study show that the implementation ...

Provision of waqf is thabit through nas from the Quran and also the traditions of the Prophet or known as al-Hadith. Although generally speaking, the fiqh discussion of waqf is only focused on two major hadiths; the hadith related to Sayidina 'Umar in Khaybar and also the date farm of the Bayruha' property of Abu Talhah. However, if it is examined more closely, there are many more hadiths discussing waqf in various aspects in al-Kutub al-Sittah. The analysis found that there were 36 texts of hadiths related to waqf in al-Kutub al-Sittah and there was a text of hadith describing on specific waqf mosque in particular. The sources of the hadiths related to the wakaf of the mosque are from Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, and cross references are found that the hadiths are also found in al-Kutub al-Sittah other than Sahih al- Bukhari and Sahih Muslim. The debate in this article will touch on the analysis of the source and history of the hadiths related to the wakaf of the mosq...

Basically, shariah risk management in the takaful industry is responsible to those specialize in shariah studies (fiqh and usul, fiqh muamalat) namely Shariah Committee (SC) of Takaful Operator and Internal Shariah Department of Takaful Operator. Nonetheless, non-shariah staff, other than SC and Internal Shariah Department of Takaful Operators, also play an important role in managing shariah risk exposures in the operations of Takaful Operator. According to section 29 (3) Islamic Financial Services Act 2013 (IFSA 2013) which states that the Chief Executive Officer and Officer including any of the staff of the Takaful Operator are responsible for ensuring shariah compliance in the operation of Islamic financial institutions.

Amil of zakat or those involved in the administration of zakat should have the same elementary criteria and qualities as discussed by the fuqaha. The determination on ruling of fiqh including in the selection of amil in Malaysia are generally based on the views of the Shafie school of thought. However, there are some decisions and pronouncement of fatwa especially related to zakat in Malaysia that are taken into consideration from the view of sect other than Shafie school of thought. Therefore, this article will discuss the prohibition of appointing amil of zakat among women in the practice of zakat management in Malaysia based on the view of Shafie school of thought. In this paper, the analysis of the views of scholars of Islamic jurisprudence and Islamic jurisprudence considered by this ruling in Malaysia will be discussed in this article and further elaborates on the element of maqasid in amil appointments among women.

Scenario of fatwa pronounced by the fatwa institution in Malaysia is constantly evolving in accordance with the principles of Islamic law which are flexible and accommodate the changing environment. Recent development shows that the pronouncement of fatwa on zakat is no longer directly tied to the view of Shafie school of thought. This development shows the openness by the fatwa institution in accepting the opinions and views of other school of thought and contemporary Muslim jurist in issuing ruling and fatwa related to zakat. This can be seen in the current scenario of ruling and fatwa pronounced are shifting from using the views of Shafie school of thought to views from other school or contemporary jurist. Various studies have been conducted which discuss the fatwa, zakat and maqasid sharia in the form of dissertation, thesis, book or journal article. This article aims to review the literature related to the fatwa on zakat and the use of maqasid al-shariah which will be conducted...

Wasiyyah or will is a legal document that outlines on how one’s estate is to be distributed in the event of affairs after the death of the testator according to Islamic law. Recently, the abundance of wasiyyah property is getting increase year by year resulting the accumulation of these properties without proper distribution among the testator’s beneficiary. Consequently, this wasiyyah caused detrimental to the testators’ beneficiaries and indirectly indicates the failure to fully understand the whole concept of Islamic property management via wasiyyah. On top of that, the confusion between wasiyyah, hibah, waqf and other Islamic property management might also lead to the above situation. This study therefore will further examine the concept and the conditions of wasiyyah and provide the procedure involved in the documentation of wasiyyah with special reference to As-Salihin Trustee, one of renowned wills Management Company in Malaysia.
