Ruling on endowing a house for a fixed period

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Shaykh was informed: Is it permissible to endow a house for a fixed period, such as making this house available for the rent of the fetus?

Answer:
No, this does not become an endowment; it becomes a perpetual endowment, and the condition of ten years is nullified. This "endowment of the neck" that people mention—there is scholarly disagreement regarding it, and the correct view is that it is invalid, because if an endowment is not defined or limited in time, it becomes perpetual.
