In Malaysia, the administrations and management of waqf (Islamic endowment) land falls under each State Islamic Religious Councils (SIRCs) as their legal trustees. The SIRCs faces several issues on waqf land that reflect the weaknesses in the administration systems that need immediate attention. The aim of this paper is to formulate the self-assessment framework that is adapted from land administration assessment framework and various waqf management strategies proposed in previous researches. This framework can serve as self assessment for the SIRC or to the monitoring agency to improve the waqf land management which eventually, can result in standardised management throughout Malaysia. The study comprises two approaches, first is content analysis of the literature reviews to identify the strategies as the assessment tools. The second is case studies analysis using adapted land administration assessment. The findings revealed innovative and effective strategies in the administration of waqf land. that worth emulated SIRCs. The findings are incorporated into a comprehensive waqf land management assessment framework. The result from the assessment serves as a great reflection to waqf institutions, where the religious councils will have a better idea on their strength and weaknesses as well as their opportunity and threat from the assessment framework.
