Abstract

Cash waqf is one of the mechanisms of charitable behaviour in Islamic belief and has been recognized as a way of waqf practice. The objective of this study is to test the relevancy of the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) in predicting the intention to perform cash waqf among university students. Data for this study were collected through structured questionnaires both in Malaysia and Thailand. A questionnaire using a seven-point scale was employed to collect the data for the current study and items from previous studies were modified to adapt to a cash waqf context. The questionnaires were distributed to 400 hundred students of the Universiti Teknologi MARA Kelantan Campus, Malaysia and 200 hundred students of the Prince of Songkla University Pattani Campus, Thailand. The return rate for the Malaysia students was 94.7% (379 samples) while the Thailand students’ return rate was 86% (172 samples). The results obtained from the data collection suggested that all three independent variables (attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioural control) have a significant relationship with the intention to perform cash waqf. Hence, the TPB framework explained the intention to perform cash waqf.
