Waqf Boards

Waqf Boards are government-appointed bodies that oversee and manage religious endowments called waqfs, which are charitable trusts dedicated to Islamic religious, educational, or social causes. They ensure that the properties and assets left as waqfs are properly preserved, used according to the donor’s intentions, and generate ongoing support for community services. Waqf Boards also resolve disputes related to waqfs and provide transparent administration. They operate within the framework of law, helping to sustain religious and social structures, and ensuring that the charitable assets are effectively utilized for public benefit.
