Faseela M vs Munnerul Islam Madrasa Committee & Anr

The Supreme Court interpreted Sections 6 and 7 of the Waqf Act, 1995, emphasizing that disputes regarding waqf properties must be resolved exclusively by the Waqf Tribunal, with no jurisdiction for civil courts in such matters. The Court held that the decisions of the Tribunal are final and conclusive, reinforcing the legislative intent to streamline the resolution of waqf disputes. The judgment clarified that any legal proceedings related to waqf properties must adhere to the timelines specified in the Act, particularly the one-year limitation for instituting suits after the publication of the list of auqaf.
