Waqf is a unique institution, invariably Muslim, though its fruits are enjoyed by all. Contrary to popular belief in India, Waqfs do not support only Muslim places of worship, but also support schools, colleges, libraries, hospitals, musafirkhanas and such other institutions for public and continue to play their humanitarian role. As such there are a central Waqf Board and state Waqf Boards, to oversee and co-ordinate their function. This first well-researched work traces the history and development of Waqfs and discusses in detail the laws and administration of Waqfs in India, various forms of Waqfs, and Waqfs property. Included in the study is the socio-legal aspects of family waqfs. The role of Mutawallia in the administration of Waqfs forms an important chapter. All the pre and post-Independence Waqf legislations and the Waqf Act 1954 have been fully examined by the legal expert which the author is. The book contains all the case decided by Privy council, Supreme Court, High Courts and outer legal institutes. In all, it is the complete, information packed, documentary study of an important institution which should interest advocates, students of Islamic laws, sociology and common citizens all over the world.

Dr Kozlowski's important study pioneers a fresh approach to the study of a critical Muslim institution: the endowments or awqaf which almost everywhere in the Islamic world provide support for mosques, schools and shrines. The wealthier Muslims who establish endowments inevitably have an eye on social, political and economic conditions and have traditionally used awqaf as part of an effort to preserve their wealth and influence, especially in periods of change and uncertainty. The book focuses on the use of endowments by Muslims suffering the dislocations caused by the imposition of British rule in India and examines in detail the social and political implications of the controversy over endowments that took place in the imperial courts and councils. The author's observations and insights can be applied to many periods and places in the Muslim world and his novel approach will attract all those interested in the study of Islam.

Waqfs (pious endowments) long held a crucial place in the political, economic, and social life of the Islamic world. This volume, which evolved from papers delivered at the 2005 American University in Cairo Annual History Seminar, offers a meticulous set of studies that fills a gap in our knowledge of waqf and its uses.
