In the case of Siti Haida binti Ismail v Siti Maznah binti Yahya & Ors ,4 where Plaintiff sue
defendant to recover the property (land) which was transferred to defendant by deceased during his
lifetime and plaintiff claim that the transfer of the property was not as hibah and claim that defendant
could not differentiate between affection and gift yet defendant raise defence that it was a gift to her
based on the love and affection and court held that since the transfer of land is under the
consideration of love and affection and not as a gift and so it is invalid hibah.
Whereas in the case of Ibrahim bin Harun lwn Mat Yusoff bin Mat Kassim ,5 plaintiff claim
that his grandmother had hibah a piece of land to him yet respondent claim that the transfer of land is
not hibah and had swear that in order to deny plaintiff claim and court held that there is no hibah of
land by his grandmother.
In contrast, in the case of Abdul Ghani bin Abdul Kadir & Seorang Lagi lwn Arpah binti
Abdul Kadir ,6 which is an appeal case where appellant deny the claim that the house has been
declared as lawful hibah according to hukm syarak by the deceased (donor) to respondent and
respondent claim that the hibah of land is lawful as deceased had stated in writing that the house is
hibah to respondent with condition that having a good relation with deceased sibling and court held
that it was valid hibah from the deceased to the respondent.
To conclude, based on the recent cases as stated above, it is clearly shown that application of
hibah is widely used in dispute pertaining to land as the inheritance of property and. Dispute
pertaining to hibah have been challenge in Malaysia Shariah Court despite whether it was made
orally or other form either by individual or their lawyer yet it can only be questioned to issue
regarding to the legality according to Islamic Law or heirs or beneficiary dissatisfied with hibah after
the death of of the donor (hibah provider)

capable to inherit the asset by legacy as an adult or minor. Thus, when the asset is transfer as hibah,
the ownership and control over the asset is deem to be under the beneficiary and trustee or wali is
appointed for minor or unsound mind people in order to received the hibah on his behalf ; the
transfer of asset(s) must be in form of hibah ie asset(s) must either be movable or immovable
property which is free from any impediment and must be halal which mean that property which is
permissible in Syariah Law, asset(s) must have prescribe value ie more than 1 dinar which equivalent
to RM735 and the donor must have right over the property and it is transferable and at the time of
hibah, the asset(s) is exist. Therefore, it clearly stipulated that hibah cannot be accepted without the
offer (ijab) and acceptance (kabul) of the agreement so, it indirectly states that without the
knowledge of beneficiary, it is impossible to perform hibah.
The application of Amanh Hibah has been adopted in certain banks in Malaysia such as Bank
Islam where they provide products pertaining to amanah hibah to their client and had specify all the
terms and condition of amanah hibah on their policy
During the 44th meeting of Syari’a Advisory Council (SAC) of Securities Commission, SAC
had made a decision on issue pertaining to hibah whereby they agree to follow the principles pf
hibah ruqba as stated in Siti Haida binti Ismail’s case as the shariah basis in execution of the form
of hibah declaration for transaction which involve the trust fund and joint account specially where
the account is owned by Muslim.
As such, it clearly shows that when applying hibah, the particular law pertaining to the hibah
provision and its it is clear that a specific law relating to the provision of hibah and its guidance is
requisite. Thus, this will able to minimized uncertain and and justify the integrity of Malaysia
Syariah Court and also indirectly increase its credibility in determining the issues regarding to hibah.
Furthermore, it can also be the guidance of the people who have the desire to practice hibah and
govern their wealth in a manner which is more well-ordered and well-organized
