Where the wakf character of the property is specifically disputed, Sections 6, 7, 83 and 85 indicate exclusive Tribunal jurisdiction and exclude the civil court. By contrast, a possession or injunction claim against a lessee or occupant, without a dispute on wakf title, was not within the Tribunal's pre-2013 jurisdiction unless the Act specifically provided for that relief.
