| Summary: | Purpose – This paper introduces the concept of manihah and develops a conceptual framework to address
Malaysia’s abandoned lands and food security issues.
Design/methodology/approach – This is a conceptual paper based on insights from the existing literature
and secondary data on food security, abandoned lands and manihah. Based on the prevailing gaps, the study
proposes a conceptual framework of the Manihah Agricultural Financing Model to address Malaysia’s
abandoned land and food security issues.
Findings – The proposed model can address abandoned lands and food security issues due to the new
incorporation of manihah within Malaysia’s agricultural and Islamic financial industries’ milieu.
Research limitations/implications – This is a conceptual paper mainly intended to spark a discussion on
the potentiality of manihah.
Practical implications – The paper contends that Islamic banks have a crucial role in furthering the socioeconomic
development agenda under the value-based intermediation (VBI). The paper will also be an excellent
introduction to Islamic bank practitioners in understanding manihah’s relevance to their daily operation.
Originality/value – This paper introduces manihah as the potential solution to food security issues by
utilizing abandoned lands. |
