Is the condition stipulated by the property owner, that two pounds be given monthly for Quranic recitations (khatmat) and 40 piasters for the carriers of the Book of Allah (hafizat al-kitab), considered an irrevocable charitable endowment (waqf khayri)? And must the heirs pay 4000 pounds monthly to the Endowments Authority (Hay’at al-Awqaf) for this share, despite their having converted the ground floor into shops at their own expense?

Contentious issues must be referred to the Sharia court or to those competent among the scholars to rule on them, because the Mufti only hears from one party. It is not possible to rule on a woman's annulment of a waqf (endowment) or her annulment of the heirs' share without knowing the text of the waqf and its validity. The waqf administration must be requested to provide a copy of the contract. A waqf for the memorizers of the Quran is a binding contract that cannot be revoked, annulled, or sold. A waqf for non-heirs is valid within the limits of one-third, whereas the validity of a waqf for an heir is disputed. The matter must be referred to the Sharia court or directly to the scholars.
