One of the most significant challenges facing the world today is climate and environmental issues. The growing demand for energy on one hand, and the inability to invest in clean energy on the other, coupled with the excessive consumption of natural resources, waste generation, and pollution, have led researchers to focus on designing new models for financing green projects. Waqf, in Islamic culture, has long been an instrument of Islamic social finance in the daily lives of Muslims. This article, emphasizing the social impacts of waqf with a modern approach to its management and consolidation, and by integrating this social finance tool with commercial finance, proposes an operational model named "Green Waqf". Green Waqf can play a significant role in bridging the financial gap and promoting sustainable development by establishing green funds, a substantial portion of which are government-funded in many parts of the world.
