After my death, CD son of, etc., and EF son of, etc., shall be the successors in my office and act as mutawalli of this wakf if qualified for the office who shall select two among their descendants as their successors and the vacancy thus created by death shall be filled up by this process for generations.

3. In the event of the death without selecting his substitute or retirement of any mutawalli holding office, the continuing mutawalli will co-opt a mutawalli in the place of one dying or retiring in the first place out of my heirs and their descendants, both male and female, provided they are found competent in that behalf, but preference shall always be given to a male eligible for the purpose.

4. Should any of the mutawallis be deemed unfit to hold the office, he shall be liable to be removed from the office of mutawalli.
