Jammu & Kashmir Grand Mufti Reacts to Supreme Court’s Stay on Waqf Act Provisions Jammu & Kashmir’s Grand Mufti, Nasir-ul-Islam, welcomed the Supreme Court’s decision to stay key provisions of the Waqf (Amendment) Act, calling it a relief for many and a reflection of the seriousness of concerns raised by the community. He emphasized that Waqf properties carry deep religious, social, and cultural significance, and any amendments must ensure the protection of people’s sentiments and rights.

He urged the Hon’ble Supreme Court to revisit and address these matters thoroughly to safeguard community concerns.
