DIGITAL GREEN WAQF: INTEGRASI WAKAF HIJAU DAN KEUANGAN SYARIAH DIGITAL DALAM MENDUKUNG SDGs

Abstrak

The global environmental crisis requires
substantial and sustainable financing, yet the
realization of productive waqf in Indonesia
remains limited and largely concentrated in
static assets, creating a financing gap for green
economic development. This study aims to
develop a conceptual model of Digital Green
Waqf as an alternative financing framework by
leveraging Indonesia’s estimated annual waqf
potential of IDR 180 trillion. This research adopts
a qualitative approach through a literature
review, synthesizing relevant secondary sources
using descriptive analytical techniques. The
study conceptually demonstrates that the
utilization of digital sharia-based financial
platforms has the potential to enhance
transparency, inclusiveness, and accountability
in waqf management, thereby enabling the
strategic allocation of waqf funds to
environmentally sustainable sectors such as
renewable energy and reforestation. The
findings are presented as a conceptual
framework rather than empirical or causal
evidence and are intended to offer an integrative
perspective on mobilizing waqf for supporting
the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The proposed model is theoretically reinforced
by an expanded interpretation of maqāṣid al
sharīʿah that incorporates environmental
preservation.
