    abstract = {It is a common phenomenon today to find a variety of products 
  based on gift in the wealth management industry and in Islamic financial markets. 
  There are, however several issues relating to gift that are the cause of some 
  confusion in the Muslim society, among them being the issue of revocation of 
  gift, especially since, there are no specific written laws relating to gift 
  in Malaysia that may be used as a guideline or reference if any problem or dispute 
  should arise. The objective, therefore of this study is to analyse the opinions 
  of the Muslim jurists and their proofs and arguments of reasoning on the Islamic 
  judicial decision (Hukm) of withdrawing the gift before and after action of 
  holding goods (Qabd) as well as the legal rule on a father’s revocation 
  of gift intended for his child and its application in the Syrian Civil Law, 
  1949. This study has employed the content analysis method from both primary 
  and secondary data by comparing the opinions of the Muslim jurists to the provisions 
  of the Syrian Civil Law, 1949. The result of the study found that the majority 
  of Muslim jurists are of the views that the contract of gift is completed and 
  effective from the time of holding the gift by the recipient. The donor of gift 
  entitles to revoke his gift if there is no evidence of acceptance from the recipient, 
  except in the case of gift from a father to his children. Contrarily, according 
  to the views of the Hanafi, Imami and Zaydi schools of thought, there is no 
  impediment upon the donor of the gift to revoke it despite the holding having 
  taken place if there is no presence of one of the conditions that prevent the 
  revocation of gift and their views seem to be in line with the provisions in 
  the Syria Civil Law, 1949.}
