Summary
The Kedah State Fatwa Committee states that e-Hibah development must comply with the pillars of hibah: the donor, the recipient, the gifted item and the contract. The donor must be mukallaf, not bankrupt and capable of managing property, and if under 18 is subject to the prevailing law. A recipient who is not yet mukallaf must be represented by a guardian or trustee, and documenting the gift under the law is advised. The committee ruled only on the Shariah aspects, and advised that charges to customers be reasonable and not burdensome.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Barang atau har ta untuk dihibah hendaklah halal, suci, bernilai, milik sempurna pemberi hibah, boleh diserah milik dan wujud pada masa hibah.
