What is prescribed for one who endowed agricultural land and then neglected it

Question:
He says: I had a piece of agricultural land, and I endowed it to spend its agricultural produce in the path of Allah. But what has happened now is that the land has been neglected from cultivation, along with all my agricultural assets; I did not neglect it alone. Many years have passed without us deriving any benefit from it to be spent in the path of Allah. So what should we do with it? Is it permissible to sell it, or donate it to a charitable project, or build a charitable project on it, or leave it as it is? Guide us to an action that keeps us away from sin and pleases Allah with us. May Allah grant you success.

Answer:
The prescribed course is to look at what is most beneficial. If it is easy to cultivate it and spend its fruit in the path of Allah—such as charity for the poor and needy, the mujahideen, maintaining mosques, and the like—then that is good. If that is not feasible, then it should be sold, for example, to be turned into a building that is rented out, generating benefit for this project. If it is sold and its price is used for a building that is rented out, and the rent is spent in the path of Allah for the interests of the Muslims, or part of it is sold and the proceeds are used to develop the rest, developing the rest into villas or apartments, which are then rented out and the rent is spent in the path of Allah and for the interests of the Muslims—this is what is prescribed in such a case; it should not be left idle. Yes.
