Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee ruled that the endowment of the land and rental house is valid as waqf for the benefit of the Teluk Kumbar qaryah, except for land sold before it was endowed. The donor's second letter dated 16 May 2017, which imposed conditions on the land, does not bind the qaryah in deciding how the land is used. The waqf land is to be vested in MAINPP under Section 89 of the Islamic Religious Administration Enactment (Penang) 2004.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
