About us

Awqaf SA was pioneered in 2000 as an independent community-based and owned trust, dedicated to the establishment of the institution of Waqf and the empowerment of communities. A Waqf (plural: Awqaf) is a voluntary, permanent, irrevocable dedication of a portion of ones wealth – in cash or kind – to Allah for his pleasure that is assigned for servicing the community. Awqaf SA is a charitable endowment (waqf) receiving organization. It invests endowment funds and spends only the income generated from investments to fund a variety of community development projects and programmes promoting Integrated Community Development and Self-Reliance.
