Leasehold is one of the land tenure systems in Malaysia, alongside freehold. This journal article presents a study on leasehold land in Malaysia from the perspectives of Sharia, history, its effects on landowners, and the nation. The research explores the leasehold land tenure system within the context of Islamic principles, examining its historical background, implications for landowners, and its broader impact on the nation's economy and society. By analyzing leasehold land tenure through Sharia principles, the study aims to provide insights into the ethical and legal considerations surrounding land ownership in Malaysia. Additionally, it seeks to shed light on the historical development of leasehold land tenure, its implications for landowners in contemporary society, and its implications for national development strategies. Through a comprehensive examination of these factors, the research contributes to a deeper understanding of leasehold land tenure in Malaysia and its implications for various stakeholders.
