    Waqf contributions for sustainable development goals: A critical appraisal
    (Springer Nature, 2022) Kachkar, Omar; Alfares, Marwa; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü
    Lack 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.

    Waqf for sustainable development goals: A critical appraisal
    (2021) Kachkar, Omar; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü
    Sustainable development has recently emerged as one of the hot issues in the field of social development. This interest has been visualized in the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the UN 2030 Agenda. Islamic social finance components fully align with the spirit of the SDGs. Particularly, the institution of waqf has played throughout Islamic history a remarkable role in supporting the sustainable development of Muslim communities. The majority of The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) members considerably lag behind other developing nations in achieving SDGs in key sectors of poverty alleviation, infrastructure, health care, education, and others. This paper surveys the existing literature on waqf implementations in developmental projects and in achieving the development goals of the UN 2030 agenda. It highlights the prospects of using waqf to bridge the financial gap in developmental projects. It does so by pinpointing two cases of waqf contributions to SDG, the first one is the General Directorate of Foundations of Turkey, and the other one is the Islamic Development Bank. Key challenges encountering the full utilization of waqf and a summary of AAOIFI good governance indicators are pointed out in the discussion section. This paper is concluded with a proposed four-point Waqf Promotion Plan (WPP) to overcome main issues in waqf and to facilitate the full exploitation of waqf in mobilizing required funds to achieve the SDG of the UN 2030 agenda.

    SRI Sukuk to achieve SDGs with a special reference to the legal and regulatory framework in Malaysia
    (Springer, 2024) Kachkar, Omar; Al Fares, Marwa; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü
    Malaysia has the leadership in developing Islamic socially responsible investing (SRI) and green finance. This study aims to highlight the importance of issuing SRI sukuk to achieve sustainable development and point out the incentives which attract investors to participate in the SRI sukuk within its legal and regulatory framework. This study has adopted a qualitative approach by analysing previous literature, as well as examining Malaysian SRI regulatory framework provisions. This study found that Malaysia is the key actor in provision of an environment requisite for issuing Sukuk aligned with SDGs such as SRI sukuk and SDG Sukuk. Promoting financing for SRI projects through issuing SRI sukuk will meet the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In order to attract more investors to subscribe to SRI sukuk, SC Malaysia is determined that SRI sukuk should be highly mandated to invest in green, social, sustainable and waqf dimensions. Moreover, the government of Malaysia (GoM) provides Tax incentives for SRI sukuk issuers, investors as well as brokers. For instance, the SRI sukuk issuer enjoys tax concessions on SRI sukuk issuance. Finally, SDG Sukuk Framework explains the Malaysian Government’s intention to utilize the SDG Sukuk to fund projects that will generate environmental and social benefits and also conform to sustainable development goals.
