The Ruling on Disposing of Endowments by Selling and Buying

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is it permissible for a person to dispose of endowments by selling and buying in them?

Answer:
Endowments? It is not permissible to sell an endowment except if its benefits have ceased, and its price is spent on its equivalent. One must consult the judge to supervise this.
