Decline of Waqf : decline of new Waqf in Muslim countries

السؤال

Assaalaamu Alaykum Dr. Monzer, I hope you are doing well by the mercy of Allah (swt). I am taking a course at duke titled "Economic History of Islamic Middle East”. I am having hard reconciling the notion that one of the chief causes for Waqf's decline is the "static perpetuity". So far I've come across works from Dr. Kuran and Jeffrey A. Schoenblum that discuss the decline in Waqf. My professor advised me to focus on last 200 years of Middle East. Masha Allah, I'm inspired by your works on Islam and economics and came across your site that lists excellent papers. I would very much appreciate if you can help me identify the right resources available in English that would help me address the issue of static perpetuity, intellectual stagnation and other factors that have contributed to the decline of this great institution which has no parallel in the West. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. JazakAllahuKhairan, Your brother in Islam Khalid
