The Ministry of Evkaf (Turkish: Evkaf-ı Hümâyun Nezâreti; French: Ministère de l'Evkaf) was an Ottoman Empire ministry in charge of awqaf (evkaf), administering waqfs (then known in Western languages as "vakouf", from the Turkish name). It was upgraded to a ministry in 1840 after being initially created in the century as the Bureau of Imperial Administration of Evkaf (French: Bureau d'Administration impériale de l'Evkaf).^[1]
