The yield of a severed endowment: the final disposition in the causes of righteousness at the discretion of the agent

Fatwa No. ( 1015 )
Q: II bought a she-camel with my wife, sharing the cost equally, meaning I paid half of its value and my wife paid the other half. My wife then made her half a public offering (tasbīl), and I made my half a public offering as well. The way my wife made her half a public offering was by establishing it as an endowment (waqf) for her descendants from me, and they have all passed away.The she-camel gave birth to a female offspring, and I handed it over to the shepherd, but it escaped from him. I estimated its value at four hundred and fifty riyals. Now I do not know how to dispose of the value of the she-camel's offspring, nor how to dispose of the mother?
A: The yield of a severed endowment is disposed of in the causes of righteousness. Since the party for whom this endowment was established has been severed, its capital remains, and its
yield is disposed of in the causes of righteousness at the discretion of the legal agent. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
