No changes to existing waqfs, including ‘waqf by user’, till next hearing: Supreme Court

17/04/2025

New Delhi: The Supreme Court has declined to issue an interim order on a series of petitions challenging the constitutional validity of the Waqf (Amendment) Act, 2025.

A bench headed by Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna stated that the hearing will continue on Thursday.

During the proceedings, the court asked the Centre whether Muslims would be permitted to be part of Hindu religious trusts.

So far, around 72 petitions have been filed against the Act, including those by AIMIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB), Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind, the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK), and Congress MPs Imran Pratapgarhi and Mohammad Jawed.
