Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on land that its owner makes a waqf (endowment) so that the proceeds from it are distributed to those in charge of the shrine, whom they call a wali (close friend of Allah)? Is it permissible for us to use it? Knowing that it is not distributed to the shrine, nor to matters of shirk (associating partners with Allah), but rather it is originally a waqf for what was mentioned?
Answer:
It is extinguished. For what was mentioned. No, it is not permissible. It is not distributed to the shrine. If the people of the Sunnah and the community take control of it, they should distribute it in the paths of good. They do not distribute it to shrines; they distribute it in the prescribed paths, if the people of the Sunnah and the community take control of it.
