As per Asian News Hub (ANH), Moulana Rahmatullah said that the Waqf Board is her domain and she can take any decision with regard to strengthening the Waqf in J&K.
However, he said that she should not interfere in religious matters as it is the sole responsibility of the Ulemas.
He further added that any Ruet-e-hilal committee if formed in future must have consultations with the grand Mufti as this institution has an islamic history.
