a- whether a widow can gift her dower to her late husband?if yes,then why it is said that she can't make a gift of her dower? b- that whether a gift can be made in favour of a dead person?if not then how come any such gift can be made by a woman of her dower in favour of her late husband? Question a: 1- woman can gift her dower which has fallen due(as in case of prompet dower which becomes due on her deman, or which has been paid to her,as in these cases it become her exclusive property) 2- gift of a dower to late husband by his wife is in legal terms waiving of one's rights in favour of a dead person.In other words freeing the dead from liability. NOTE: gift in this farm i.e relinquishing the deceased from liability can be always made. other example of such gift can be the relinquishment of the debtor by the creditor from the liability to return the the loan. Question b: 1- a gift cannot be made to anyone non existant,no matter the donee is an unborn child(not going to take birth within 6 months from the date when the gift is made) or a dead person. Exception: gift of dower or any other such right due against the deceased can be made in his favour by the person in whose favour the right is falling due. hope i made the point.. best regards
