WAQF FUNDING

Daripada Abu Hurairah r.a. bahawa Rasullullah S.A.W. telah bersabda “Apabila mati anak Adam akan terhentilah amalannya kecuali tiga perkara: sedekah jariah atau ilmu yang dimanfaatkannya atau anak yang soleh yang mendoakannya.”

“Bandingan (perbelanjaan derma) orang-orang yang membelanjakan hartanya pada jalan Allah, ialah seperti sebiji benih yang tumbuh dan menerbitkan tujuh tangkai; tiap-tiap tangkai itu pula mengandungi seratus biji. Dan (ingatlah) Allah akan melipat gandakan pahala bagi sesiapa yang dikehendakinya dan Allah amat luas (rahmat) kurnia-nya lagi meliputi ilmu pengetahuan-nya.”
(Surah al-Baqarah: ayat 261)

Being among the pioneering higher institutions that integrate Naqli and Aqli knowledge, USIM believes in the concept of Waqf as a sustainable funding for the University. The Centre of Waqf and Zakat of USIM (PWZ) has established several initiatives to drive Waqf as the main agenda of the university. This includes the development of the USIM Cash Waqf programme, Site Waqf programme and education Waqf Programme. In July 2013, USIM was appointed as the Mutawalli by the state religious council, MAINS, whereby the university has been entrusted to manage and develop the endowment fund and distribute the benefits to target groups as entrusted by the wakif (persons to endow).

WAKAF TAPAK

Wakaf Tapak is the second collaborative effort with MAINS, whereby three double-storey shop lots numbered 193, 194, and 195 are operated to improve access to health services among asnaf groups (the current USIM Health Specialist Clinic is a rental property of Putra Nilai Developments). Initially began as Negeri Sembilan – USIM Eye Specialist Mobile Clinic, the USIM Health Specialist Clinic (MAINS collaborated) has been in operation since April 2015. As a way to facilitate the asnaf groups, a specialist and haemodialysis treatment(for patients diagnosed with end-stage-renal disease) is proposed through the setting up of USIM-MAINS Haemodialysis Centre to ensure treatments are regularly administered. In addition, the service includes outpatient treatments from certified medical experts. Such determination by the Government of Negeri Sembilan, MAINS, and USIM in the development of health service, it would be an advantage if all three double-storey shop lots numbered 193, 194, and 195 (the current USIM Health Specialist Clinic is a rental property of Putra Nilai Developments) are purchased so as to lessen rental cost and to ensure the sustenance of endowment assets.
