Description
Augaf or Waqf is an important social and a pious concept under the Muslim law. It signifies a voluntary act by an individual (waqif) resulting in an inalienable endowment of his/her property towards charity. The act literally involves and causes detention of a specific thing in the ownership of God and devotion of the profit thereof to charity. The ultimate object behind evolving such practices under the Muslim law is alleviation of poverty from the society. Law Relating to Augaf in India' is a comprehensive work on the subject of Auqaf/Waqf covering all aspects thereof. The subject has been dealt with in a reader friendly manner and the most complicated and intricate concepts have been explained in a lucid manner. Furthermore, I have compiled and included all relevant statutory provisions (including rules) in the book so as to make it a ready reference for anyone interested in the subject. I want to place on record my sincere thanks and gratitude to Justice Arun Mishra, Judge, Supreme Court of India, for his enormous support and guidance without which I would not have been able to successfully complete this book.
I also want to convey my sincere gratefulness to Mr. Mrigendra Singh, Senior Advocate of MP High Court who motivated me to start this work and kept me motivated throughout the course of completion of the book. I wish there were better words in my dictionary than 'Thanks' to express my gratitude for his constant support. I would also like to thank Mohammad Ayyub who has helped me in putting my thoughts on paper. His simple, hardworking and ever smiling personality has been of more help than I can acknowledge.
