2026 SCMR 499: Registered Gift Deed Alone Is Not Sufficient Without Offer, Acceptance and Delivery of Possession

Registered hiba cancelled.

2026 SCMR 499: ھبہ صرف رجسٹرڈ دستاویز سے ثابت نہیں ہوتا، ایجاب، قبول اور قبضہ بھی لازمی ہیں

⚖️ حقائق مقدمہ

☢️ شوہر نے دعویٰ کیا کہ اس نے ایک مکان بیوی کو حق مہر کے عوض جبکہ دیگر جائیداد ھبہ کے ذریعے منتقل کی۔
☢️ بیوی نے اعلانِ حق، قبضہ اور حکمِ امتناعی کا دعویٰ دائر کیا۔
☢️ ٹرائل کورٹ نے بیوی کے حق میں مکمل فیصلہ دیا۔
☢️ اپیلٹ کورٹ نے مکان کی منتقلی حق مہر کے عوض برقرار رکھی، لیکن دیگر جائیداد کا مبینہ ھبہ ثابت نہ ہونے پر فیصلہ منسوخ کر دیا۔
☢️ ریویژنل کورٹ نے بھی اپیلٹ کورٹ کے فیصلے کی توثیق کر دی۔
☢️ سپریم کورٹ نے قرار دیا کہ درخواست گزار یہ ثابت نہیں کر سکی کہ نچلی عدالتوں نے کسی شہادت کو غلط پڑھا یا نظر انداز کیا، لہٰذا اپیل کی اجازت مسترد کر دی گئی۔

⚖️ سپریم کورٹ کے اہم قانونی اصول

✅ صرف رجسٹرڈ ھبہ نامہ کافی نہیں، بلکہ ایجاب، قبول اور قبضہ بھی ثابت ہونا ضروری ہے۔
✅ اگر اپیلٹ کورٹ اور ریویژنل کورٹ کے نتائج متفق ہوں (Concurrent Findings)، تو سپریم کورٹ عام طور پر مداخلت نہیں کرتی۔
✅ صرف یہ کہنا کہ شہادت کی غلط تشریح ہوئی، کافی نہیں؛ Misreading یا Non-reading of Evidence واضح طور پر ثابت کرنا ضروری ہے۔

📌 حاصلِ فیصلہ

☢️ ھبہ کی تکمیل کے لیے ایجاب، قبول اور قبضہ بنیادی شرائط ہیں۔
☢️ متفقہ حقائق پر مبنی عدالتی نتائج میں سپریم کورٹ صرف غیر معمولی قانونی یا شواہد کی واضح غلطی کی صورت میں مداخلت کرتی ہے۔
