Question:
He says: My father had a collection of Islamic tapes, and I wish to endow them to the mosque library in my neighborhood for lending, with conditions including a time limit. I exempted myself from those conditions, meaning I consider it permissible for me to dispose of those tapes. What is the ruling on this?
Answer:
Did your father appoint you as his agent in this matter? If your father appointed you as his agent regarding these tapes, then you do what is in the public interest and in accordance with the conditions. But if your father did not appoint you as his agent regarding these tapes, they are for whoever benefits from them; whoever benefits from them takes them. Yes.
