Article 37 of Real Estate Registration Law

English translation

A father may appoint a chosen guardian for his minor child or for the fetus in its mother’s womb. A donor to a minor may likewise do so if the donor stipulates that the donated property shall not be subject to the authority of the minor’s legal guardian. The latter guardianship must be submitted to the Sharia Court for consideration of its confirmation.
Arabic original
يجوز للاب ان يقيم وصيا مختارا لولده القاصر او للحمل المستكن في بطن امه كما يجوز ذلك للمتبرع للقاصر اذا اشترط عدم خضوع المال المتبرع به تحت سلطة ولى القاصر. ويجب ان تعرض الوصاية الاخيرة على المحكمة الشرعية للنظر في تثبيتها.
