Transacting with Endowed
Issue No.1786- Transactions on endowed property are void. However, if it is spoiled to the extent that it cannot be used for the purpose which it was endowed for, like, if the carpet of a mosque is in a bad state that it is not possible to perform prayer on it, there is no objection in selling it. Similarly, old building materials which are no longer needed for reconstruction of the mosque, can be sold and the money acquired in this way should be spent in the same mosque for the same purpose. In case if this is not possible, it should be spent for a purpose which is nearest to the intention of the endower and if it is not needed for that mosque, it can be used in other mosques.
