The main challenge faced by the Majlis Agama Islam Negeri (MAIN) in their efforts to develop the wakaf lands productively is the lack of funds. To overcome this, MAIN has implemented several halal financing methods, either traditional or contemporary. One of the halal financing methods that MAIN is currently paying attention to is renting or leasing wakaf properties (building and land wakaf) to individuals and even non-government companies or Government Link Company (GLC) to productify these wakaf properties, more commonly known as wakaf distribution methods. Majlis Agama Islam Negeri Pulau Pinang (MAINPP) is one of the MAINs who are rather advanced in developing the wakaf properties productively, using the method of ijarah wakaf. The implementation is proven to successfully productify the wakaf properties in Penang. Based on this phenomena, this research is done to achieve two goals. First, to identify the development project on the wakaf properties in Penang which applied the method of ijarah wakaf. Second, to analyse the effect of the implementation of the method in productifying the wakaf properties. This research involves methods of collecting data from document sources and in-depth interviews with MAINPP wakaf officers. Content analysis is used for the analysis of data. The findings showed that there are several development projects in Penang which applied the ijarah wakaf by the MAINPP, including the Perumahan Wakaf Seetee Aisah in Seberang Jaya and Perumahan Wakaf Khan Mohamed in Georgetown, Penang. The analysis shows that the application of the ijarah wakaf successfully productify the wakaf properties in Penang because the benefits of such development can be taken advantage of.
