The Waqf (pious endowment in Islam) fulfilled vital political,
social and economic functions. Reiter presents a picture of the
role of Islam in mandatory Je.0rusalem through the resources of the
Waqf. The Waqfs, as owners of 80% of the land in the old city of
Jerusalem, and their socio-political influence, lie at the root of
the present debate about the character and future of this Holy
City. The prevalent image of institutionalized corruption within
the Waqf system, involving beneficiaries, administrators and
members of the elite is not completely supported by the findings
ofthe present study.
