Abstract

In Malaysia, hibah (inter vivos gift) is a significant Islamic estate-planning tool, legally recognized under State Islamic Family Law Enactments and integrated into Shariah-based financial instruments. While traditionally applied to immovable assets, it is increasingly relevant for movable wealth like gold which is a popular investment among Malaysian Muslims. This paper investigates the framework governing hibah of gold, assesses Shariah compliance considerations, and analyzes practical challenges within Malaysia's dual legal system.
