Summary
The Council of Ulama of the Kelantan Islamic Religious Council resolved that the Council, as trustee, must strive to develop the waqf lands under its control while honouring and carrying out the donors' trusts. It approved the Council's proposals: developing idle land, for example as a centre for new Muslims or a tahfiz centre, using the special waqf fund of RM482,301.15 to buy permanent assets such as land or buildings, and extending the Quran recitation arrangement at Langgar Mosque to other mosques. Benefits from the purchased assets must be channelled as the donor entrusted.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Majlis Agama Islam Kelantan sebagai nazir atau pengawal kepada tanah-tanah wakaf hendaklah berusaha untuk membangunkan tanah-tanah wakaf yang dikawal olehnya.
