Summary
A hibah from an individual to a company or body is permissible provided the donor fully owns the property given. The contract is valid when it meets three pillars: the two contracting parties, the offer and acceptance, and the gifted property. The donor must be eligible to give and have full authority over the property, the offer and acceptance must be continuous, unconditional and not time-limited, and the property must exist, have value and belong to the donor. If the donor intends to invest in the company, the hibah is void.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Hibah daripada seseorang/individu kepada sebuah syarikat atau badan diharuskan oleh syarak dengan syarat pemberi hibah mestilah pemilik sepenuhnya kepada barangan yang dihibahkan
