  The purpose of the present study is to determine the feasibility of using financial resources of the Islamic government, especially Mowqufāt (endowed assets) to prevent and confront Coronavirus disease relying on the evidence of Islamic rules. The method of study is descriptive-analytic and it has dealt with this main question: What is the ruling on using Islamic financial resources, especially waqf to prevent and confront Coronavirus disease from the view of Imāmiyah Fiqh? The results showed that the philosophy of assigning Islamic financial resources is related to their type of use. Financial needs for the prevention and treatment of Coronavirus disease can be resolved by using many of these resources in the path of God. Moreover, although assigned to some purposes other than medical use and scientific research, the assets of waqf can be used for the prevention and treatment of Coronavirus disease. Manuscript profile

  Undoubtedly Waqf assets like any other property involve passage of time so they have expiration dates. The benefit and expediency of waqf assets depend on the sustenance of those properties so if their life span ends up by any cause, it is natural that their benefits also expire. It seems that by changing the usage of waqf assets, those properties can be sustained. The presented study is conducted with the purpose of "finding some strategies to facilitate the sale and conversion of waqf assets and increasing permission cases of changing their usage" and aims to review the arguments for and against this subject, apply previously conducted research by contemporary jurists and lawyers, and challenge the condition of permanence of endowment. The research method is descriptive-analytic and the results showed that in some cases, the usage of waqf assets can be changed and those properties can be used for other purposes provided that it is consistent with the aim of the endower.       Manuscript profile
