National Awqaf Foundation of South Africa

About Awqaf SA

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. 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 programs promoting Integrated Community Development and Self-Reliance.

The National Awqaf Foundation of South Africa (Awqaf SA) has relentlessly championed the institutionalization of the prophetic and divine concept of Waqf.

During these years to date, we have seen tremendous growth in the popularization, understanding, and internalization of the concept but we still have a long way to go. As we celebrate our 21st year of existence, we look forward to the next decade with enthusiasm for exponential growth.
