The objective of this study was to investigate the accounting of waqf assets as practiced by the State Islamic Religious Councils (SIRCs) in Malaysia. The study examined the perception of respondents who were involved directly in managing waqf. Ten self-developed questionnaires were posted to each of the 14 SIRCs in Malaysia. A total of 56 officers responded to the questionnaire. The result indicated that SIRCs did not maintain proper waqfassets accounts, which consequently delayed their financial reports.
