Question:
Is there a best method you recommend for someone who wants to establish an endowment for his father or mother? Because the current practice is maintenance and management, so what is better in your opinion?
Answer:
If he wants to establish an endowment for one of his relatives, and it is an immediate endowment during his lifetime, then there is no harm in that. But if it is an endowment after death, then it takes the ruling of a bequest, and it is not permissible for the heir. Yes.
