Waqf Services

Supporting Community Development through Waqf

At Hijrah Institute, we are committed to promoting the concept of Waqf (endowment) as a means of supporting the community and enhancing the well-being of Muslims in Cambodia. Our Waqf services focus on various initiatives that contribute to the development of our community while adhering to Islamic principles.

Our Waqf Services Include:

1. Cambodian Mosque Building & Mosque repair

We work with local asatizah in Cambodia to identify mosque/musollah to be build especially in remote areas. We also aim to repair worn down mosque there to ensure they remain safe and welcoming spaces for prayer.

2. Al Qur’an Distribution

We are dedicated to spreading the message of Islam and making the Qur’an accessible to all. Our distribution initiatives include:

  • Free Qur’an Distribution: We distribute copies of the Qur’an in local languages to ensure that individuals in Cambodia can access the holy text and learn about Islam.
  • Community Engagement: Our efforts to distribute the Qur’an are accompanied by educational programs to help recipients understand its teachings and principles.

Hadith on Waqf

Umar ibn al-Khattab (RA) said:
“O Messenger of Allah, I have acquired some property, which I consider to be the best property, and I want to give it in charity. How should I do that?”


The Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
“If you wish, you may give it as a charitable endowment (Waqf), and if you do, you may not sell it, nor give it away, nor inherit it, nor do anything that would reduce its original purpose. Rather, keep it for the benefit of the poor, orphans, travelers, or others in need.”
(Sahih al-Bukhari, Hadith 2764)

Key Points from the Hadith:

  1. Waqf as Charity: This Hadith emphasizes that a Waqf is a highly virtuous form of charity, and the intention behind it should be to benefit others, particularly the needy, over a long period of time.
  2. Perpetual Charity: Once something is made into a Waqf, it cannot be sold, inherited, or given away. It remains dedicated to the cause for which it was intended, making it a source of ongoing rewards for the donor (sadaqah jariyah).
  3. Utilization for the Community: The Waqf can be used for various purposes such as helping the poor, providing for the orphans, supporting religious activities, building schools, or aiding travelers, as long as it benefits the community.

Importance of Waqf:

  • Sadaqah Jariyah: The Waqf is considered a form of ongoing charity (sadaqah jariyah), meaning that the benefits of the endowment continue to accrue even after the person’s death.
  • Social Welfare: Waqf plays a significant role in supporting Islamic education, healthcare, infrastructure, and welfare systems.
