This article focuses on the possessing endowment that refers to the association that copes the endowment properties from the endower in order to be managed and developed based on its intentions (Act Number 41 of 2004 Article 1 Section 4). According to Imam Syafi’i, possessing endowment can be comprised by waqῑf, or mawqūf ‘alayh, or ḥākim.
