Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He asks: What is the ruling on renting out a waqf if the endower did not stipulate it?

Answer:
If renting out the waqf is for the benefit of the endower and for the benefit of the waqf, by renting it out for a fee, and this fee is used in matters that benefit the endower, such as charity and charitable projects, then there is nothing wrong with it. This is a matter of public benefit. Yes.
