Abstract

This study aims to investigate the intention to pay cash waqf among Indonesian Muslim youth. In addition, this study explains the Theory of Planned behavior and additional two variables, namely Islamic religiosity and willingness.The Partial Least Square Structural equation modeling (SEM) approach is used to test structural models and measurements. Online questionnaires were distributed to purposively selected respondents throughout Indonesia, which consists of all major islands. In total, there are 104 respondents collected. This study found that the Attitude variable and the willingness variable affect the intention to pay cash waqf among Indonesian Muslim youth. In addition, Subjective Norms, Perceived Behavioral Contol, and Islamic religiosity variables are not significantly proven as the determinant. This study focuses on the factors that influence the intention of Indonesian Muslim youth to perform cash waqf. This study examines the theory of planned behavior, Islamic religiosity, and willingness. With the latest data and variables studied, these findings can be used as guidelines for policymakers, especially waqf bodies to innovate and improve the characteristics of cash waqf contributors, especially among Muslim youth so that they can maintain sustainability and development of waqf instruments.
