Question:
Regarding endowment funds, is the endower entitled to dispose of them and spend them on himself and his dependents?
Answer:
It depends on his condition. If he stipulated that he would benefit from them for the duration of his life, there is nothing wrong with it. However, if he did not stipulate this, they become a valid endowment, and he has no right to take anything from their yield; rather, he must spend them on the endowment purpose for which he intended and designated them. Yes.
