Description
Summary:The writing seeks to illustrate examples of waqf (endowment) in education that has been implemented in Indonesia. Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor (hereinafter called PMDSG) is taken as a sample since it is a very successful waqf-oriented educational institution. This concept of waqf-based education in PMDSG is a good example of welfare-based education endowment which provides immense benefits to the community at large. Thus, this research aims to examine the administration of PMDSG particularly relating to its waqf management. In this research, the researchers used both primary and secondary data. The primary data is based on the interviews conducted to several respondents from PMDSG, while secondary data is obtained from extensive literature in the form of books, journal articles, relevant statutes and related data and documents. The finding of the research shows that the waqf-based education implemented in PMDSG is a good model to be applied in today’s education system. It is recommended that the administration of waqf in education should be implemented in modern, professional, transparent, systematic and well-planned manner by the government and private sector. © IAEME Publication.
