The worldwide spread of the Covid-19 virus is now a pandemic that affects society in daily life. Furthermore, the government’s implementation of the Movement Control Order (MCO) to curb the spread of this virus among the community has affected daily economic activities. For example, workers and traders have had to limit their economic activities. The long duration of MCO has also resulted in them facing job losses, salary cuts, and shutting down the business operations. This implication makes the group lose or lack income for their daily life. Therefore, through a qualitative approach in data collection and analysis, this study aims to identify the potential of waqf’s instrument that can be planned and developed by Majlis Agama Islam and Adat Istiadat Melayu Perlis (MAIPs) as the sole trustee of waqf in Perlis to overcome economic problems faced by the community during the Covid-19 pandemic. Additionally, the study also explains the economic impact of the country and the state of Perlis during the transmission of Covid-19. The study results found that MAIPs committed using waqf property and assets when Covid-19 spread their effect to community. Additionally, the study found spaces and potentials for MAIPs to explore waqf’s instrument in the form of Mu’aqqat waqf, special waqf, cash waqf and waqf of expertise and services that need to be structured and managed to solve the country’s economic and public health problems.
