Article 305 of Jaafari Personal Status Law

English translation

A bequest transferring ownership to a foetus is valid provided that it exists at the time of the bequest, even if the soul has not entered it. If it is born alive, it shall own the bequeathed property upon acceptance by its guardian; otherwise, the bequest shall be void and the property shall revert to the testator's heirs.
Arabic original
تصح الوصية التمليكية للحمل بشرط وجوده حين الوصية وإن لم تلجه الروح فإن تولد حيا ملك الموصى به بقبول وليه وإلا بطلت الوصية ورجع المال إلى ورثة الموصي.
