<![CDATA[Objective:This study aims to develop an integrated Good Waqf Governance model for productive waqf by identifying and validating governance dimensions and subcriteria through expert assessment, while conceptually mapping patterns of dependence, interdependence, and feedback among governance elements using an ANP-informed network framework Design/Methodology:The study adopts a mixed-evidence design that integrates a literature review and expert assessment as its primary sources of evidence. The literature synthesis identified five governance dimensions and 18 subcriteria, which were subsequently validated by five experts comprising academics and practitioners from UIN Ar-Raniry, IAIN Langsa, Baitul Mal, and the Indonesian Waqf Board (Badan Wakaf Indonesia). Expert assessments employed a 1–9 rating scale and geometric mean aggregation across four key criteria: human resources, regulation, information technology, and sharia compliance. The governance elements identified as most critical through expert assessment were subsequently structured conceptually according to ANP network logic, without conducting full pairwise comparison matrix and supermatrix computations Findings:Human resources received the highest aggregate expert rating (7.765), followed by regulation (6.722), information technology (6.320), and sharia (5.966). The proposed model positions nazhir capacity as the entry point of the governance architecture, operating through the principles of transparency, accountability, professionalism, sharia compliance, and maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah. These principles are reinforced by three key governance mechanisms—regulation and oversight, technology and information, and sharia governance—which ultimately support productive asset management, waqf performance and sustainability, stakeholder trust, and participation and collaboration. These elements form a feedback cycle that continuously reinforces governance capacity Practical Implications:Reforming productive waqf management requires the simultaneous strengthening of nazhir human resources, regulatory frameworks, information systems, and sharia governance, consistent with the four strategic directions identified in this study Originality/Value:The originality of this study lies in integrating five previously fragmented governance dimensions into a single interdependent network architecture. Rather than employing ANP solely as a computational procedure for deriving priority weights, this study utilizes its network logic as a conceptual framework for structuring governance relationships. The resulting model takes the form of a feedback cycle that shifts the paradigm of productive waqf from mere asset utilization toward governance-enabled asset productivity.]]>
