General Waqf
The General Waqf is your chance to buy into the Waqf Future Fund without specifying a category, leaving it up to Islamic Relief to decide where the revenue is most urgently required. Revenue from your General Waqf investments can go towards any of the seven types of Waqf:

The advantage of the General Waqf lies in the diversity of these options. Over ten years from first setting up a General Waqf, the revenue may have helped build wells, sponsor orphans and educate youngsters and provided food and medicine to the poor.

Whilst browsing through Islamic  Relief ’s  website, Hussain came across the Waqf Future Fund. Amazed by the concept and  the  role  it played in history, Hussain  decided  that he wanted to play a part in this great scheme. Using his credit card, he clicked  onto the  donations  page and  purchased two General Waqf shares. He received  an email acknowledging  his  donation. A  few weeks  later, Islamic  Relief ’s  Waqf  department sent him  a Waqf deed confirming his purchase of two shares. Hussain was so taken by the Waqf Future Fund that he told his family and friends about it.
