Is revoking a gift valid if made conditional upon a future event?

Book of Gifts and Donations
Primary text
If the revocation of a gift is made conditional, such as saying, 'When the beginning of the month arrives, I have revoked the gift,' the condition is invalid. This is because the nullification of a contract cannot be made contingent upon a condition, just as the contract itself cannot be made contingent upon one.
