Vol. VII, No. 6.] The Wagqf of Moveables. 375 
[V.S.] 
itself or that waqf is the most obvious kind of it. Therefore the 
validity of such a waqf on account of its being owned by a 
joint stock company cannot be questioned. And as possession 
is the condition for validity of a waqf, therefore the donor 
must hand over (the property) either to him for whose benefit 
the waqf is made, or to the Mutawalli; [he must give posses. 
sion to the Mutawalli, etc.] exactly in the same way as he 
would have done to a purchaser to whom he had sold his share. 
In the case of wagqf he must give possession to the Mutawalli. 
If he constitutes himself the Mutawalli, he must act according 
to the deed of waqf, and must consider his possession as that 
er a Mutawalli and not that of an owner. If he has made 
agf of musha‘ property and given possession the waqf 
is valid je. binding. If he has ai given possession, he 
may revoke the waqf during his lifetime. If the dedicator 
dies before giving possession, the waqf is null and void. God 
is the All-knowing.
