  • A. Transfer of property
  • B. Stealing of property
  • C. None of these
  • D. Permanent Dedication of property

Explanation

Waqf is the permanent dedication of property for a religious, pious or charitable purpose, so ownership is committed to the waqf purpose rather than treated as an ordinary transfer or sale. The concept is therefore broader than a simple transfer of property.
