Handing Over Endowments to the Endowments Administration

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it a condition that an endowment be handed over to the Endowments Administration, given that the father (may Allah have mercy on him) specified in his will that the supervisor of the endowment should be the most suitable among his children?

Answer:
An endowment dedicated to a specific cause, and an endowment for mosques—this is paid from the endowments. An endowment for mosques is handed over to the Endowments Administration, but an endowment for a specific individual is not handed over to the Endowments Administration.
