The issuance of the Waqf Law in Indonesia changes the assets paradigm from immovable to movable objects. This change was followed by the development of the waqf management model, namely, productive waqf. As a movable asset, Copyright has a high economic potential as a means of prospering the community. This study aims to identify Copyright criteria that can be used as productive waqf assets. This research was conducted by examining Government Laws and Regulations on Waqf, Copyright Law, Fatwa of the National Sharia Council of the Indonesian Ulema Council (DSN-MUI). The results show that Copyright can be used as a productive waqf asset provided that (1) the assets are obtained in a halal manner (2) has a long-lasting (3) has economic value as measured by a valuator (4) the object of Copyright can be developed the economy.

Thus, the Indonesian Waqf Board (BWI) needs to foster Nadzir to have competence in the development of copyright waqf asset.
