Maulana Khalid Rasheed Questions Objections to Waqf Amendment Bill, Says Most Properties Yield No Income
In response to nationwide protests by the All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) against the Waqf Amendment Bill 2024, prominent board member Maulana Khalid Rasheed Farangi Mahali emphasised that over 90 per cent of Waqf properties—including mosques (masjids), graveyards (kabristans), shrines (dargahs), and community halls (imambaras)—do not generate any income.
Speaking to ANI, Maulana Khalid Rasheed clarified:
"More than 90 per cent of Waqf properties are in the form of masjids, kabristans, dargahs, and imambaras. There is no income from these properties. So, there's no reason why objections are being raised. These properties have been managed by the Muslim community for hundreds of years."
