Summary: | In Islam, there is a close relationship between the accumulation of wealth to its redistribution. Once wealth is accumulated, Muslims are ordained to redistribute their wealth voluntarily. Income redistribution by helping the poor voluntarily, primarily through the Waqfs, was definitively preferred. Waqaf, in the simple term refers to the act of surrendering one's property so that the same is to be used and for the benefits of all Muslims. The main key reason for a person to commit the ownership of his or her property to Waqf is to seek the blessings of Allah S.W.T. and to bring oneself near to Him. Waqf is a mechanism for the redistribution of wealth which can help to ensure the socio-economic welfare to the community |
