Self-dedicated waqf (وقف على النفس) is a form of waqf (Islamic endowment) in which the income/ usufruct of the assets (property) assigned as endowment is retained by waqif (the waqf donor) as long as he/ she is alive. Thereafter, the waqf revenues will go to charity.
It is also known as waqf ala al-nafs.
