The nadzirs only know that waqifs hand waqf land over to them to be used by muslim, but not for the matter of the replacement and dismissal. In other words, nadzirs in Tampan have not developed a professional sense of duty due to the lack of socialization from KUA.Originality/Values: Furthermore, the impact of  no report on retiring and shifted nadzir to KUA is mudharat in the system of administrations or report on waqf land. At worst, misuse of waqf land can occur. The report on the replacement and dismissal of nadzir in Tampan is inconsistent with article 221 of Law Number 41 of 2004. Verse 1 and 2 state that nadzir is obliged to report the replacement and dismissal of nadzir to local KUA.
