Financial constraint is the primary challenge plaguing Private Tahfiz Institutions (PTIs) in Malaysia. Moreover, the recent COVID-19 pandemic has led to the closure of many PTI due to inefficient and unsustainable governance. Government aid and student fees are insufficient to cover the increasing overall cost of PTI governance each year. Consequently, existing PTI entities must explore alternatives to boost income sources while conserving resources to maintain balanced and stable governance over time. This paper aims to elucidate the concept of sustainable tahfiz, in developing a conceptual framework, propose a Model of Institutional Tahfiz Alami (MITA), and discuss policies supporting MITA. The 2R1P concept (Reduce, Reuse, and Produce) forms the foundation of MITA, focusing on three green initiatives: (i) Water Harvesting Strategy, (ii) Renewable Energy Strategy, and (iii) Food Sustainment Strategy. This aligns with the Malaysia National Green Technology Policy and contributes to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and MADANI Malaysia Policy through M-Sustainability, A-Sustainability, and D-Innovation. Consequently, the MITA conceptual framework is expected to pioneer advanced research in PTIs to fulfil the National Tahfiz Education Policy (NTEP) towards producing 125,000 huffaz by 2050.
