Designated Waqfs

 


A designated waqf is a charitable endowment in which the donor specifies the special purpose of the waqf and/or specific beneficiaries.  Designated waqfs are made where the donor has a passion for a particular cause or project. For example, the donor may direct that the waqf should be solely for the development of food, trees, and water projects and that the beneficiaries should be from a particular locality. There are several potential designated waqfs - it depends entirely on the donor/ waqif/ah.
