Ruling on investing waqf funds
Question: 130883
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
There is nothing wrong with investing this waqf in shares in a company that does not deal with riba, if this company is proven to be safeand free of risk, and it is permissible to offer sacrifices using the income generated. And Allah is the source of strength. End quote.
Majmoo‘ Fataawa Ibn Baaz (20/21).
