Yayın Waqf contributions for sustainable development goals: A critical appraisal(Springer Nature, 2022) Kachkar, Omar; Alfares, Marwa; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüLack of funds has been a substantial challenge in achieving the sustainable development goals for all developing countries including many of OIC member states. The World Bank estimates that approximately, from $1.5 to $2.7 trillion is needed every year to finance SDGs projects between 2015 up to 2030. This chapter examines the potential role of waqf as a fund-mobilising instrument. It specifically focuses on the progress in achieving SDGs in OIC countries. Four key development areas are highlighted in this regard, namely, poverty alleviation, healthcare, education and finally infrastructure development. A comparison between OIC and non-OIC countries is drawn to assess the progress of OIC countries. Except for some areas in infrastructure development, OIC countries seem to be lagging behind their non-OIC counterparts in all the four covered areas. Tapping waqf resources can greatly contribute in achieving the SDGs, in particular the monetary waqf or cash waqf. To support this argument, this chapter brings various case studies from waqf institutions operating in the Muslim world. The first case study discusses two institutions in Turkiye and the second one highlights the contribution of two subsidiaries of Islamic Development Banks. This chapter concludes with a prolonged discussion of the existing challenges encountering the full employment of waqf in achieving the SDGs.Yayın Using mudharabah (profit-sharing partnership) in supporting refugee microenterprises and microfinance programs: Prospects and challenges(IGI Global, 2019) Kachkar, Omar; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüThis chapter examines the prospects and challenges of using the mudharabah (profit-sharing partnership) instrument to extend microfinancing to refugees in microenterprise support programs. According to the literature, many Muslim refugees voluntarily exclude themselves from microfinance programs due to the element of interest that is strictly prohibited in Islam. Mudharabah as a Shariah-compliant mode of finance represents one potential instrument that complies with the religious teachings of Muslim refugees and could assist in the financial inclusion of many of them. Despite the inherent risks of mudharabah such as moral hazard and adverse selection, some successful stories are remarkably encouraging. This chapter is proposing a model for a microenterprise support program based on mudharabah. It further concludes that mudharabah is a viable mode of finance provided that best practices in implementing mudharabah as well as microfinance programmes are well adopted and observed.Yayın Mobilizing zakat (almsgiving) funds to support refugee microenterprise pogroms: A proposed conceptual model(IGI Global, 2022) Kachkar, Omar; Alfares, Marwa; Kachkar, Omar; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüThis chapter examines the prospects and challenges of using zakah as a source of funding in microenterprise support programs for refugees. According to the literature, lack of funds represents a fundamental obstacle in supporting refugees' livelihood in particular in microenterprises programs. Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam. All Muslims have to pay 2.5% of their wealth every year to the poor and needy. Refugees represent one of the main beneficiaries of zakah. Recently the UNHCR has established a zakah fund to mobilize zakah funds to help refugees. This chapter argues that instead of assisting refugees with cash money, zakat funds or at least part of the zakat funds can be used to provide microcredit grants to support the refugees and help them to help themselves. Despite all the challenges of microfinance programs in particular in the context of refugees, well-designed microfinance programs can provide a more sustainable solution to refugees in particular those trapped in protracted situations.Yayın Using mudarabah for micro-enterprises of refugees(IGI Global, 2023) Kachkar, Omar; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüThis chapter examines the prospects and challenges of using the Mudharabah (profit-sharing partnership) instrument to extend microfinancing to refugees in microenterprise support programs.
