Question:
Honorable Shaykh, does the reward cease when the benefit of the endowment is discontinued?
Answer:
If the endowment is discontinued and no longer provides any benefit, the reward ceases. This is because the reward continues as long as the charity is ongoing, meaning it is continuous. So, if the endowment is discontinued and there is no benefit from it, the reward stops.
