Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: A man endowed his car as a waqf with a da'wah office for the purpose of transporting da'wah workers to carry out da'wah. Is this valid and is it called a waqf?
Answer:
This returns to the scholarly disagreement regarding the waqf of movable property. The car is movable; the car is movable. However, he can donate it. There is no obstacle to donating it. Donating the car is called a donation, not a waqf. Yes. Therefore, the entity to which the donation is made may sell it if it needs to. If it were a waqf, it would not have sold it. Yes.
