MOHAMMED vs MOHAMMED BEKE

The Supreme Court examined whether a wakf was created under the Wakf Act, 1954, based on a registered document executed by the appellant. The Court upheld the concurrent findings of the lower courts that a valid wakf was established, thus affirming that the appellant could not cancel the deed. The definition of 'Wakf' under Section 2(1) of the Wakf Act, 1954 was pivotal in determining the nature of the dedication, which was found to be lawful under Hanafi law.
