Oleh itu, kajian ini memfokuskan berkaitan peranan dan sumbangan institusi wakaf dalam mengembangkan peradaban Islam semasa kerajaan ‘Uthmaniyyah menguasai wilayah tersebut pada abad ke-15M sehingga abad ke-17M. Kajian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif yang berbentuk kajian sejarah manakala kaedah pengumpulan data pula menggunakan kaedah analisis dokumen daripada sumber primer dan sekunder serta kaedah temubual supaya dapat mengukuhkan data yang didapati. Hasil kajian menunjukkan peranan institusi wakaf kerajaan ‘Uthmaniyyah bukan sahaja dalam membawa peradaban Islam ke seluruh wilayah Eropah Timur tetapi juga ia turut menyebarkan peradaban ‘Uthmaniyyah.

Pemerintah bukan sahaja meluaskan kuasa dengan menakluk wilayah baru tetapi juga mahu menyebarkan peradaban Islam dan memberikan kebajikan kepada masyarakat.
