A study was undertaken to search for opportunities to apply Geographical Information System (GIS) into the management and administration of waqf institution. Selangor Islamic Religious Council (MAIS) is a trustee responsible to manage waqf property affairs in Selangor. It was reported that recently in Selangor, there are 832 recorded lots of land bequeathed by the Selangor Islamic Religious Council (MAIS). Out of these, 517 falls under general waqf land category and the remaining are under specific waqf land category. These lands are used as construction sites for mosques, orphanages and schools. Waqf property should be managed systematically so that the property can be utilized for developing Islamic society. Waqf property data should be updated in a systematic manner as it can ease managing and planning, so that it can be fully used. In this study GIS has proven generating accurate, cadastral maps of waqf land defining legal repositioning of ex-land ownership, status and location, enhancing systematic planning and management of waqf land. The role of GIS should be recognized and be an essential for waqf land management throughout the country.
