The suitability of wassiah order to provide adequate method to current property management is limited. This is due to the nature of wassiah in Islam that only allows the maximum of one third of the property to be distributed to the beneficiaries upon the death of the proprietor. No such limitation exist in hibah, because in this case the owner divests himself of all rights in the property immediately, Faraid and wassiah are largely related to the distribution of property after death of the owner.

In this respect, hibah is seen as the best solution of the above proposal since the property can be transferred to family members with terms and conditions merely decided by the donor himself, and, of course with the agreement of the other heirs or would be beneficiaries.
