Which one of the following is not correct with reference to the legal incidents of Waqf under Muslim law?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
Under Muslim law, once a valid waqf is created, the dedication is permanent, binding, and irrevocable. Ownership of the dedicated property is extinguished in the founder (wakif) and vests impliedly in the Almighty, making the property non-transferable and non-heritable. Consequently, the wakif has no legal right to revoke or alter the fundamental character or dedication of the waqf after its completion.
