Abstract
Waqaf An-Nur Corporation Berhad is a philanthropic organisation established by Johor Corporation (JCorp) to manage and develop waqf (Islamic endowment) assets and shares within the JCorp Group. Operating as a company limited by guarantee without shares, Waqaf An-Nur focuses on leveraging endowed resources for the benefit of the community across various sectors, including healthcare, education, social welfare, and economic development. In 2019, Waqaf An-Nur, operating under the trust of the Johor State Islamic Religious Council, significantly expanded its role by managing Johor's Business Zakat Agency (JCorp). This strategic expansion has enabled Waqaf An-Nur to broaden its support for needy beneficiaries through a variety of impactful programmes centred on healthcare, socio-economic development, spirituality, and community welfare.
