The research reached important results, the most important of which are:

After this circumambulation of the provisions of the gift for children and the cases involved, I came up with the following results:

1 - The gift of ownership of the eye without compensation.

2 - The terms charity, gift, and gift are similar in meaning to the gift.

3- The gift is permissible based on evidence from the Noble Qur’an, the Sunnah of the Prophet, and the consensus of scholars.

4 - The scholars have three opinions regarding the gift of money to children: some of them said that settlement is required, some said that it is desirable to settle, and some said that it is permissible not to settle and prefer one over the other for reasons.

5 - The most correct opinion regarding gifts between children is compromise, as in inheritance.

6- A gift to a child is an award in the life of the donor and must be acquired and owned by the donor.

7 - The gift in the event of a death illness, if there is no heir or debt that takes up the money, is executed, but if there are heirs or the debt is not implemented except with the permission of the heir.

8 - In the event that the gift is suspended until after death, it is mortgaged to the heir after death.
