The Condition of the Return of a Gift to the Donor's Heirs After His Death

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible for the donor to stipulate that after his death, what he gave as a gift returns to the donor's heirs?

Answer:
No. Once the gift is taken possession of, it belongs to the one who took it. It does not return to the donor, nor to the donor's heirs.
