<![CDATA[Waqf sukuk is an innovative sharia financial instrument that integrates sukuk and waqf principles to optimize community empowerment in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the influence of waqf sukuk on community empowerment using a literature review method from various related literature, documents, and regulations. The findings indicate that waqf sukuk, particularly through the Cash Waqf Linked Sukuk (CWLS) scheme, plays a significant role in supporting the financing of sustainable social projects in education, health, and the economy, while also expanding the benefits of waqf beyond the religious sector. The issuance of CWLS in Indonesia has involved various nazhir institutions and distribution partners that channel returns for economic empowerment programs, scholarships, health facility development, and strengthening MSMEs.
