This activity examines the practical role of Waqf (Islamic endowment) in improving primary healthcare services within rural communities of Gombe State, Nigeria. Although primary healthcare is still essential for long-term community well-being, rural areas in Gombe State continue to face obstacles such as inadequate medical personnel, limited infrastructure, and a lack of affordable medications. Utilizing a qualitative case study methodology, data was gathered through interviews with healthcare professionals, Waqf administrators, community leaders, and beneficiaries in three selected rural communities. The study also analyzed existing Waqf-based health projects and explored the administrative systems and legal frameworks of Waqf in Gombe State. The results show that Waqf, when properly institutionalized, has a revolutionary effect on community health education, drug subsidization, the construction of community clinics, and the provision of free maternity and child health services. Waqf's efficacy in the healthcare industry is, however, constrained by the research's discovery of awareness, regulatory enforcement, and stakeholder coordination deficiencies. The report suggests policy frameworks that incorporate Waqf into Gombe State's main healthcare development plan, the establishment of a state-recognized Waqf commission with a focus on healthcare, and the strengthening of local Waqf administrators' capacity. The study concludes that Waqf is a workable Islamic social finance instrument that can relieve the strain on public health resources, empower marginalized rural communities, and help the state achieve universal health care.

This study investigates the feasibility of restoring waqf-based endowments as a long-term method for improving teacher education and training in Northern Nigeria. Drawing on historical and present waqf models, the research investigates how this Islamic philanthropic organization might solve teacher shortages, low training quality, and imbalances in educational service delivery. The study employs a qualitative research methodology that includes document analysis, expert interviews, and case studies from various Islamic institutions. The findings show that waqf has historically played an important role in financing education in Muslim communities, but it has fallen due to colonial interruptions, legal limits, and a lack of public awareness. The research suggests that reviving and updating waqf through proper legislation, community participation, and integration with public-private partnerships can considerably improve the quality and accessibility of teacher training in underprivileged areas. Recommendations are provided for government agencies, religious leaders, NGOs, and communities to collaborate in building waqf-based teacher education projects to reposition and assure sustainable teacher training in Northern Nigeria.

Climate change and environmental degradation have become major worldwide issues, particularly in poorer nations. There are still gaps in funding and community-level instruction for sustainable environmental practices, despite global commitments to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Although the Islamic institution of waqf, a type of perpetual charity endowment, has long been important for social welfare, little is known about how it might help with sustainability and environmental education. The purpose of this study is to investigate the applicability and potential of waqf in advancing sustainable development and environmental education. It looks at how waqf can be set up and used to support environmental initiatives, ecological literacy, and awareness-raising initiatives both inside and outside of Muslim communities. Using content analysis of original Islamic law sources, historical case studies, and modern waqf models from nations like Malaysia, Indonesia, and Turkey, a qualitative research approach was used. To learn more about real-world applications and difficulties, semi-structured interviews were also done with community leaders, environmental academics, and waqf officials. By creating eco-friendly schools, assisting research facilities, financing green technology, and supporting awareness campaigns based on Islamic ecological ideals, waqf can make a substantial contribution to environmental education and sustainable development, according to the study. Examples from history show that waqf holdings were historically utilized to protect public amenities and natural resources like forests and water sources. In certain nations with a majority of Muslims, contemporary waqf organizations are already starting to adjust to sustainability goals. However, because of a lack of knowledge, legal restrictions, and a lack of creativity in waqf management, this integration is still quite low. The scope of this study focuses on a few Muslim-majority nations with operational waqf organizations. Access to waqf administrative documents and some parties' reluctance to reveal financial strategies are further barriers to empirical data

Background of study: This study examines the advantages, difficulties, and prospective advancements of Waqf in bolstering primary healthcare services in Gombe State's rural regions. Waqf, an Islamic endowment for social welfare, has long provided funding for healthcare and education, but its ability to provide rural health care is still restricted.Aims and scope of paper: The study intends to evaluate the role Waqf institutions play in primary healthcare and offer solutions for enhancing their sustainability and effectiveness in rural Nigeria.Methods: Qualitative and quantitative data were combined in a mixed-methods approach. Structured interviews and questionnaires with Waqf administrators, healthcare providers, legislators, and community members were used to collect primary data. Official reports, pertinent literature, and case studies of effective Waqf-based healthcare projects were examples of secondary data. The data was interpreted using thematic analysis and descriptive statistics.Result: The results show that Waqf institutions build facilities, offer subsidized medical services, and help staff in order to give vital healthcare support. Their efficacy is hampered by issues like low public knowledge, shoddy legislative frameworks, erratic funding, inadequate asset management, and little cooperation with government organizations. Important suggestions include bolstering relationships, strengthening legal and policy frameworks, and promoting financial sustainability through investment.Conclusion: According to the study's findings, Waqf can be a long-term source of finance for rural healthcare with effective management, lowering reliance on government and outside assistance while fostering fair access to healthcare throughout Gombe State.
