Its approach to good governance, especially in Islamic banking and finance, along with its successful administration of Islamic affairs and public welfare in general, is undeniable. However, its attention to good governance and management of Tabung Masjid is still in its infancy. Tabung Masjid in Malaysia continues to lack proper administration and is facing several issues, the most pressing are as follows: inefficient strategic planning for expenditure, accounting, banking, and investing the surplus of Tabung Masjid. This paper examines the ways Tabung Masjid is being managed in Malaysia by focusing on three key aspects, namely, account reporting, banking strategy, and investment of surplus.
