            CONCLUSION
            Ripin dan Muhammad Yusoff (2022), Insisting that the practice of
            waqf not only serves to advance the socioeconomics of the society, but
            also greater than that, he said, the practice of waqf can solve the issue
            of monopoly of wealth by unscrupulous parties. It acts like a two-
            pronged  society  where  it  is  to  take  care  of  the  welfare  of  the
            community in need simultaneously, waqf can pioneer the process of
            raising the socio-economic status of a society.

            The main function of waqf in the context of higher education is to
            ensure that HEI has financial and intellectual autonomy. This is just as
            important as helping the government reduce costs and assisting the
            university  administration  in  managing  all  administrating  expenses.
            According to Nawi dan Ismail (2020), The superior and competent
            must value intellectual autonomy as well as have financial autonomy.
            Through  the  waqf  mechanism,  HEI  in  the  history  of  Islamic
            civilization  has  always  had  both  properties.  HEIs  with  complete
            financial independence will be better able to carry out their missions
            and visions.
