Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

The doctrine of "Musha" (which restricts a gift of an undivided share in property capable of division) is specifically recognised under Hanafi law, where a gift of an undivided share in divisible property is irregular ("fasid") unless perfected by partition and delivery of possession. Shia law, by contrast, recognizes a gift of an undivided share as valid without partition.
