| description | Philanthropic commitment in the form of
waqf is important particularly among younger
working adults in ensuring sustainable flow
of funds for charitable purposes. One of the
vital usages of such funds is funding for
higher education. A question is raised on the
commitment of younger adults in such giving.
This study examines waqf commitment traits
among waqif (waqf contributors) for higher
education funding. The specific objective of this
study is to measure the factors that influence the
waqif to contribute their property or income into
waqf for higher education fund. For the purpose
of this study, 400 questionnaires have been
distributed to working young adult respondents
in the Klang Valley area. Waqf commitment
attributes comprising of Religiosity, Trust,
Altruism, Personal Characteristics, SelfImage,
Psychological Benefits, Social Norms
and Personal Satisfaction are examined. The
findings reveal that Religiosity, Altruism,
Personal Satisfaction and Commitment are
significant attributes in explaining waqf
commitment. However, Trust and Social Norm
are not significant. |
