Abstract

Waqf is an integral part of Islamic philanthropy that has long contributed to social development and the welfare of the ummah. In the digital era, the practice of waqf has undergone a significant transformation through the use of crowdfunding platforms and sharia-based financial technology. This study aims to explore trends, challenges, and future directions of digital waqf management in Indonesia. The research was conducted through a qualitative approach with a literature study method on secondary data sourced from scientific journals, reports of philanthropic institutions, and official statistical data. The results of the study show that digitalization opens up wide opportunities for cross-generational community participation in waqf activities, especially through efficient, transparent, and inclusive online platforms. However, challenges are still found, such as low digital literacy, regulatory limitations, trust issues, and traditional perceptions of waqf that limit the adoption of digital waqf. This study emphasizes the importance of collaboration between waqf institutions, the government, the technology sector, and civil society to build a sustainable and effective digital waqf ecosystem for the development of the people.
