Enabling families and institutions to structure, steward and deploy wealth through waqf for generations.
IHSAN International Waqf Labuan Foundation ("IIWF") or known as "Ihsanwaqf" is a registered not-for-profit organization dedicated to advancing sustainable social development through the revival and modernization of the Islamic endowment system (waqf).
Established under the Labuan Islamic Foundation Act 2016 (Form 8) (Registration No. LAF00649-(L)), the Foundation leverages digital innovation, ethical governance, and strategic collaboration to maximize the impact of waqf in addressing global challenges, including poverty, education, healthcare, environmental sustainability, and community empowerment.
Guided by the principles of Maqasid al-Shariah and following Global Standard AAOIFI (GS 13 & SS 60), we are committed to promoting transparency, accountability, and long-term public benefit. Our mission is to build a sustainable waqf ecosystem that creates meaningful and lasting impact for communities across generations.
"To catalyse and mainstream waqf as a trusted pillar of Islamic finance by providing innovative, Shari'ah-compliant and sustainable waqf solutions and services that mobilise assets, empower communities, and deliver measurable impact, enduring value and Barakah for generations."
We envision a future where:
We pursue excellence in everything we do, guided by sincerity, integrity and a commitment to serving humanity.
We treat every waqf asset and entrusted resource as an amanah, managing it responsibly, transparently and for its intended purpose.
We seek to create value that goes beyond financial returns, generating lasting benefit, blessing and positive outcomes for people and generations.
We design waqf solutions that preserve capital, strengthen long-term viability and create sustainable benefits for future generations.
We focus on meaningful and measurable social, economic and community outcomes rather than activity alone.
We embrace innovative structures, technology, partnerships and Islamic finance solutions to unlock the potential of waqf in a changing world.
