Dargah Hazrat Husain Shah Wali’s 1654 acres
Justice VVS Rao in his judgement said that Waqf’s views are the views of Prophet Hazrat Muhammad that if and when a property is dedicated as waqf, it becomes the property of God and no body can make any change in it or sell it. The Division Bench also directed that the ownership of the above-mentioned land / property be settled in Waqf Tribunal. The High Court Bench also maintained Waqf Tribunal’s earlier temporary stay order and during this temporary stay order the Tribunal had directed all the contending parties, particularly the opposing parties to maintain status quo and not to make any changes like construction, sale, purchase or any change in the nature of the property. It had also stated that the Trustee of Waqf property will only be the caretaker of these properties, and he too cannot make any changes, sale, purchase etc. of these Waqf properties
