Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

When a waqf is made, the ownership of the wakif is extinguished and the property vests in the "Almighty" (God), its usufruct being applied to purposes recognised by Muslim law as pious, religious or charitable; the Waqf Act, 1995 likewise treats a waqf as a permanent dedication of property. The mutawalli is only a manager, not an owner, and the beneficiaries take the benefits without owning the property.
