Hibah Amanah TH

Hibah Amanah TH is the voluntarily gift from TH Depositor’s savings account to the Recipient (s) during his/her lifetime on the basis of love without any coercion and there is an ijab qabul between the Depositor and the Recipient (s). 

The property (s) will be held by the depositor as the trustee. The ownership of the property(s) will be transferred to the Recipient(s) after the demise of the depositor and/or to any person who is entitled to inherit the properties under the Islamic law, should the Recipient(s) dies before the depositor. 

Hibah principles comprise five (5) components:

1. Depositor (Wahib).
2. Recipient (Mawhub lahu).
3. Property (Mawhub).
4. Formal exchange (Ijab and Qabul).
5. Hibah procurement (Qabd).

The four (4) main concepts of Hibah Amanah TH are as follows:

1. Depositors are free to give their Hibah Amanah properties to anyone including non-Muslims.
2. The properties of Hibah Amanah are not subjected to the faraid (the distribution of the properties under the Islamic law).  Thus, anybody is entitled to receive Hibah Amanah.
3. Hibah Amanah properties that have been legally given to the Recipient(s) cannot be claimed by other heirs through faraid.
4. As an alternative/solution for property distribution to adopted children or Muslim reverts who have no Muslim relatives. 
5. The depositor can still enjoy the benefits of the Hibah property (s), so long as the depositor and Recipient(s) are still alive.

Hibah Amanah TH is a gift of property (s) by the Depositor during his/her lifetime to the Recipient of Hibah Amanah TH from his/her TH savings account voluntarily on the basis of love, without any coercion and with ijab qabul between the Depositor and the Recipient.  The property (s) will be held by the Depositor as the trustee while the ownership of the property (s) will be transferred to the Recipient(s) after the demise of the Depositor. In the event the Recipient(s) dies before the Depositor, the property (s) shall be inherited to any person who is entitled to inherit the Hibah Amanah for the Recipient(s) under the Shariah rulings and shall be payable whenever a claim is made to TH as required.
