This transaction was with my mother&#8217;s consent as she was happy to become the owner of the land, but what I have noticed this was my father&#8217;s idea who still possesses the land ownership file with my mother&#8217;s permission for safekeeping but throughout the process there was no verbal ijab and qabool (offer and acceptance) which I believe are primary conditions for completing hiba. Under the circumstances I have mentioned is the process of hiba complete and is my mother indeed the actual owner of the land I have mentioned or do I need to ask them to fulfil conditions of verbal ijab and qabool, and also ask my mother should take possession of land file to complete the process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong><u>In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong><u>Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">There are two conditions for hibah (gift-giving) to take place:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>If the individual gifting (the gift) relinquishes ownership of the gift.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u0648\u0627\u0644\u0623\u0635\u0644 \u0623\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0648\u0647\u0648\u0628 \u0625\u0646 \u0645\u0634\u063a\u0648\u0644\u0627 \u0628\u0645\u0644\u0643 \u0627\u0644\u0648\u0627\u0647\u0628 \u0645\u0646\u0639 \u062a\u0645\u0627\u0645\u0647\u0627&#8230;\u0641\u0644\u0648 \u0648\u0647\u0628 \u062c\u0631\u0627\u0628\u0627 \u0641\u064a\u0647 \u0637\u0639\u0627\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0648\u0627\u0647\u0628 \u0623\u0648 \u062f\u0627\u0631\u0627 \u0641\u064a\u0647\u0627 \u0645\u062a\u0627\u0639\u0647\u060c \u0623\u0648 \u062f\u0627\u0628\u0629 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647\u0627 \u0633\u0631\u062c\u0647 \u0648\u0633\u0644\u0645\u0647\u0627 \u0643\u0630\u0644\u0643 \u0644\u0627 \u062a\u0635\u062d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">The essence (of a gift) is to do with the gift, if it is occupied (by any means\/in any case) by the one giving the gift, the completion of \u201cgifting\u201d has not been finalized\u2026example(s) which show that gifting isn\u2019t complete:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">A gifted pouch with the gift giver\u2019s food in it<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">A gifted house with the gift giver\u2019s things in it<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">A gifted animal with the gift giver\u2019s saddle on it [Rad Al Muhtar Vol 5 page 690]<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>Additionally, the one being gifted should actually possess the present.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u00a0\u0634\u0631\u0627\u0626\u0637 \u0635\u062d\u062a\u0647\u0627 (\u0641\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0648\u0647\u0648\u0628 \u0623\u0646 \u064a\u0643\u0648\u0646 \u0645\u0642\u0628\u0648\u0636\u0627 \u063a\u064a\u0631 \u0645\u0634\u0627\u0639 \u0645\u0645\u064a\u0632\u0627 \u063a\u064a\u0631 \u0645\u0634\u063a\u0648\u0644)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">A condition to validate a gift (is that the gift must be in possession, not passed back and forth, unoccupied).
