MALEZYA VE TÜRKİYE’DEKİ VAKIFLARIN TOPLUMUN SOSYO-EKONOMİK KOŞULLARINA YAPTIĞI KATKILAR

İslam tarihinde vakıf kurumlarının müslüman ümmetinin sosyo-ekonomik gelişiminde önemli bir rol oynadığı yaygın olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu makale, Türkiye ve Malezya’daki seçilmiş vakıf kurumlarının toplumun sosyo-ekonomik koşullarına yaptığı katkıları incelemektedir. Makalede ele alının vakıflar, Malezya’dan Al-Bukhary Vakfı ve Kumpulan Waqaf An-Nur Berhad vakfı, Türkiye’den ise İHH Vakfı, Diyanet Vakfı, Hakyol Vakfı, ve TİMAV’dır. Çalışmamız, bu vakıfların proje ve programlarının belirtilen amaçlara ulaşmalarını sağlayıp sağlamadığını tartışmaktadır. Seçilmiş bu vakıfların sahip oldukları imkanlarda ve yönetim modellerindeki farklılıklarla elde ettikleri geniş tecrübeler bu karşılaştırmayı önemli kılmaktadır. Bu vakıfların, vakıf programlarını özgün bir yaklaşımla geliştirip geliştirmedikleri ve ihtiyaç sahiplerine yeni yollarla ulaşıp ulaşmadıkları araştırılmaktadır.

THE CONTRIBUTION OF WAQF INSTITUTIONS IN MALAYSIA AND TURKEY IN IMPROVING THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC CONDITIONS OF THE SOCIETY

It has been widely acknowledged that waqf institutions play an important role in the socio-economic development of the Muslim Ummah in the Islamic history. This paper elaborates the contribution of selected waqaf entities in Turkey and Malaysia in improving the socio-economic conditions of the society. The waqaf entities involved in this study include two corporate waqaf institutions from Malaysia, namely Al-Bukhary Foundation and Kumpulan Waqaf An-Nur Berhad;  and four waqaf entities in Turkey, namely, IHH Foundation, Diyanet Foundation, Hakyol Foundation, and TIMAV. This study discusses the projects and programs undertaken by these selected waqf entities to achieve their respective objectives.  Such a comparison is important considering the diverse experiences of these selected waqaf entities in view of the differences in their endowments and different corporate management models. The paper investigates whether these waqaf entities have implemented a novel approach in developing waqf programs and experimenting new ways of new reaching out to the beneficiaries.
