Quick Summary

A group donated land for a mosque 25 years ago when they were the majority. Now, having migrated to the area, a new group forms the majority and is attempting to take control of mosque management without the original donors' consent. The advice given is that once land is donated, it cannot be reclaimed, and the donation cannot be conditional. However, if there was a promise of involvement in administration, legal action might be possible based on long participation, but not solely on the land donation. Membership and participation in committee meetings are key to claiming a right in management.

After having donated the land to the mosque, you cannot claim any rights in the mosque.
The gift cannot be conditional, the gift if executed with any condition becomes invalid in law.
If you were promised to be a part of the mosque administration, you can legally fight for it due to your long participation in the mosque activities but you cannot claim it as a right just because you have donated the land to the mosque

Yes. You cannot claim the property back. And you have no right to the mosque. If you are a member and you are in mosque committee meetings you can now claim it and if any disputes arise consult in Wakf Board.
