Innovation on the Guidelines for Waqf and Ibtida’ by the Ministry of Home Affairs Malaysia and its Impact on the Use of the Mushaf in Malaysia

This study examines the innovation of the Guidelines on Waqaf and Ibtida’ by the Ministry of Home Affairs (KDN) and its implications for the use of the mushaf in Malaysia. The study aims to analyze the rationale behind the reform of these guidelines, to state the purpose of alignment through the guidelines as a basic reference for the parties involved, and to examine its impact on the accuracy of Quranic recitation among the community. Using a qualitative design through the analysis of official documents, articles, and scholarly works, the study identifies that the innovation of the Ministry of Home Affairs (KDN) guidelines has strengthened alignment, particularly in terms of Waqaf and Ibtida’ for mushafs published in Malaysia. The study concludes that the new guidelines of the Ministry of Home Affairs (KDN) not only enhance the quality of mushaf regulation but also contribute to the strengthening of Quranic literacy in Malaysia specifically. The implications of the study suggest the need for continuous training for publishers, policymakers, and Quran teachers to ensure the effectiveness of its implementation on an ongoing basis.
