Abstract

This study investigated e-wallet-based cash waqf giving behaviour among Malaysians, particularly in one of its states called Negeri Sembilan. Two theories namely the theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) and the Islamic Theory of Consumer Behaviour (ITCB) were integrated to analyse the behaviours of 397 respondents using SPSS v.28. Further, the results show that all TPB and ITCB factors were influential in determining e-wallet-based cash waqf giving behaviour. Moderating the role of Islamic religiosity is also fruitful. The results were then discussed to better understand the idea for waqf collectors to increase their collection of cash waqf. Some limitations are found in this study and therefore it is essential for future researchers to interpret our findings with caution. Importantly, this study has contributed to the enrichment of measurement items for TPB and ITCB variables in the cash waqf context.
