The study uses accountability as the main theoretical lens informing this, where waqf management does not merely see beneficiaries as the passenger in the relationship, rather, as one of the means to improve waqf management.

An improved accountability relationship downwardly to beneficiaries offers an opportunity for an improvement on the effectiveness and efficiency of waqf management. This is essentially a conceptual paper in which the empirical study is in progress. In presenting the conceptual elements, the paper draws experience from NGO accountability literature and explores the extent to which a theoretical understanding of holistic accountability may offer important insight into the way management of waqf may be improved. 2010-07 Conference or Workshop Item NonPeerReviewed application/pdf en http://irep.iium.edu.my/13788/1/APIRA-2010-211-Osman-Accountability-of-WAQF-management.pdf Osman, Ahmad Zamri (2010) Accountability in waqf mangement: learning from praxis of nongovernmental organisation (NGO).
