Special
Chapter Five Thanks
To :
A. Al- Eyyan
Introduction:
Contracts are an important part of our lives, as contracts are constantly contracted,
whether between individuals and individuals or companies for commercial purposes.
Contract: an agreement enforceable by law. In other words, a contract is an agreement
which legally binding between the parties.

Types of contracts:
• Sales contracts: for the sale and purchase of G&S.
• Employment contracts: for hiring employees.
• Rental or lease contract: for the rent of a property or house.

The differences between contract and agreement:-


• Every contract contains an element of agreement, but the agreement alone cannot lead
to a legally recognized contract.
• This is because the parties to the agreement sometimes do not intend to establish legal
relations.
THE BASIC ELEMENTS OF A CONTRACT:
1. Offer.
2. Acceptance .
3. Intention to create legal relations.
4. Consideration.
5. Certainty.
6. Capacity.

Explain
 THE BASIC ELEMENTS OF A CONTRACT:

1. Offer:
An offer or proposal is necessary to form an agreement. When someone expresses to
the other a desire to do or refrain from doing something, with the aim of obtaining
the consent of the other party (Definition).
Offer: All contracts start with an offer. One party requires something from the
other. The other party has the resources to satisfy it for an exchange in value.
• The person making the offer called the promisor/ offeror. ‫المتعهد‬
• The person received the offer called the offeree.
The offer or proposal is effective once it has been communicated to the offeree by
the offeror.
• An offer made verbally or in writing is called an express offer,
• while the offer without speaking (through behavior) is called an implied offer.
)‫ في حين يسمى العرض دون التحدث (من خالل السلوك‬،‫العرض اللفظي او الكتابي يسمى عرض صريح‬
.ً ‫عرضا ً ضمنيا‬
 THE BASIC ELEMENTS OF A CONTRACT:
2. Acceptance:
• When the person who gets the offer agrees, the offer will be acceptance
(Definition)
• When an offer accepted ,it becomes a promise.
• When acceptance is made with words, it is called express acceptance,
• when acceptance is made with other than that (behavior), it is called implied acceptance.
.ً ‫ في حين يسمى القبول (من خالل السلوك) قبوالً ضمنيا‬،‫• القبول بالكلمات (اللفظي او الكتابي) يسمى قبول صريح‬
• Acceptance must be absolute and unconditional for there to be complete consent, if the
approval is conditional, it is not called acceptance.
‫ وإذا كانت الموافقة مشروطة فال تسمى‬، ‫• يجب أن يكون القبول مطلقا ً و غير مشروطا ً حتى تكون هناك موافقة كاملة‬
.‫القبول‬
 Revocation of Offer and Acceptance: ‫الغاء العرض أو القبول‬ ‫عدد‬
1. Cancellation notice by the offeror to the offeree.
2. Death or mental disorder of the offeror. .‫اشعار اإللغاء من قبل العارض الى المعروض عليه‬ .1
.‫ موت أو اضطراب عقلي لمقدم الطلب‬.2
3. The time of accepting the offer has expired. .‫ انتهاء وقت قبول العرض‬.3
.‫ عدم إستيفاء القابل للشروط‬.4
4. The acceptor does not meet the conditions.
 THE BASIC ELEMENTS OF A CONTRACT:
3. Intention to Create legal Relations:-
• Contract law does not provide for the intention to create legal relations, but because some
previous cases happen , it is necessary to mention this element in contracts.
• Actually, it is up to the courts to check the intentions of the parties through the context and
language used.
4. Consideration:
• It may be money, right, interest or other benefit that is assigned to another person in return for
what he/she gave. Consideration is an important element of the contract that both parties of the
contract must clearly agreed on.
(Law Teacher Site- Malaysian Contract Law).
 Consideration not need to be Adequate:
• Under Malaysian law, the consideration not need to be enough, so an agreement is not void
merely because the consideration is inadequate.
.‫ لذا فإن االتفاق ليس باطالً لمجرد أن االعتبار غير كاف‬،ً ‫ ال يلزم ان يكون االعتبار كافيا‬: ‫• بموجب القانون الماليزي‬
 Section 26 shows the application of the rule as it reads:
• A agrees to sell a horse worth RM1000 for RM10, as consent to the agreement was freely given, so
the agreement is a contract even if the consideration not enough.
 THE BASIC ELEMENTS OF A CONTRACT:

5. Certainty:
• The terms of an agreement must be certain.
• An agreement which is uncertain or is not capable of being made certain is
void/cancelled.
• For example, if Ali agrees to sell to Mary a hundred crates/boxes of toys without
specifying what kind they are, in this case the agreement is void because of
uncertainty.
• On the other hand, if Ali is a dealer in plastic toy soldiers only, and he agrees to sell a
hundred crates of toys, the type of toys dealt with by Ali indicates the meaning of the
word ‘toys’.
 THE BASIC ELEMENTS OF A CONTRACT:
6. Capacity:
• Capacity refers to the ability of the parties to a contract to fully understand its terms and
obligations.
• The parties entering into a contract should have the legal capacity to do so.
 Who has the capacity to contract:-
• Who is of the age of majority according to the law to which he is subject, of
sound mind and not deprived of contract under any law he was subjected to.
 Exceptions of Capacity in Malaysian law:
1. Contracts for necessaries: necessities are things that are essential to a child or adult
and his reasonable comfort, e.g. Food and shelter clothes.
2. Contracts of scholarship: for example: in Malaysian law ,scholarship agreement entered
into by a child is valid when the scholarship award, loan is granted by the Federal or State
Government, or an educational institution such as a university.
3. Contracts of insurance: In Malaysian law, the child over the age of ten may enter into a
contract of insurance.
However, if he is below the age of sixteen, he can only do so with the written consent of his
parents or guardian.
Privacy of Contract:
It is a basic principle of common law that no person who is not a party to a contract
may sue over the contract.
• The third party can enter into the contract through the approval of the first party
and the second party, provided that the contract is renewed, which means replacing
an original party with a third party in a new agreement.
