%X The aim of this study is to examine the rental transactions of the assets of the already existing and newly established Waqfs in Jerusalem between 1703 and 1831. In the historical process, the question of the effects of rental procedures of the Waqf assets on the development of the Waqf institution will be sought to be answered within the framework of the study. It is possible to specify the renting methods stipulated by the endowers in the waqfiyyas as part of Waqf system. Although it is possible to define rent applications by three different names as ijara wahida, hikr and ijara taw£¿la (ijaratayn), annual renting or ijara tawila, or long-term leasing, was preferred among the transactions used in the evaluation of Waqf properties in Jerusalem. In the leases made with hikr method, the tenant was expected to protect the buildings and trees within the land and ensure their continuity, while in the leases made with huluvv the repairs and terminations of the leased properties were provided. In the end, if there were no tenant to rent or lease the property for a long time, the custodian (mutawalli) of the Waqf would apply to the judge (kadi) to replace the asset of the Waqf with another property. Such changes, called istibdal, were probably made to invest in another property or to meet the cash needs of the Waqf. The study, which aims to examine these practices regarding the transactions of Waqf properties in Jerusalem, will consist of three parts. Firstly, it will attempt to determine the assets and charitable goods of the newly established Awqaf in Jerusalem in the period covered by the study. Then, the methods of operation of these properties will be examined and different applications will be explained through the examples determined from Jerusalem Shari¡®a Court Registers and the orders for the province of Damascus (Ahkam Registers). The third part will attempt to determine in the light of the data obtained, the position of the Awqaf in the economy of Jerusalem
