‘Umra (gift in which both the giver and the taker have to wait for the death of each other so that the house etc. would belong to him permanently).
[1] (Ch.4) This kind of gift is also called Ruqba which is derived from the Arabic verb meaning ‘to wait’; because both the giver and the person given to used to wait for the death of each other so that the house would belong to him permanently. ( Fath Al-Bârî , Vol. 6, P. 166)
