           The  function  and  contribution  of  zakat  and  waqf  are  explicit  and
           frequently emphasised in many discourses. The contributions of these
           two tools to the economic development of women and community, on                               ZAKAT & WAQF:
           the  other  hand,  appear  to  be  underappreciated.  Meanwhile,  the
           contributions may trigger a reciprocal process in which women who
           benefit from zakat and waqf will play an ideal role in helping to expand
           the potential of zakat and waqf to other target groups. As a result, it is                                      impact on
           advised  that  themes  of  women’s  and  community  development  be
           highlighted in the zakat discourse through the creation of publications
           on the subject. This immediately explains the importance of zakat and                        women and community
           waqf, which are so comprehensive and take into consideration every
           element of Muslim life in general. As a result, this book seeks to fulfil
           contemporary  demands.  Aside  from  being  a  research  study,  it  may
           also serve as a reference for organizations concerned, such as zakat                                       development
           institutions  and  other  institutions,  in  developing  plans  connected  to
           zakat  and  waqf  for  Muslim  growth,  particularly  in  the  dimension  of
                                 women and community.
