The Final Bequest – The Islamic Will & Testament
The Final Bequest – The Islamic Will & Testament
Author: Muhammad Bin Mustafa Al Jibaly
Description: Writing a will is an important religious duty for every capable Muslim, serving to prevent potential disputes and conflicts after one’s death. This obligation is particularly significant for Muslims living in the West, where failing to draft a clear and well-structured will could result in the distribution of one’s estate contrary to Islamic law. This could lead to unfair outcomes for rightful inheritors. This guide includes: (1) authentic information on the proper way to write wills, (2) practical, ready-to-use will forms, and (3) a concise summary of the Islamic inheritance laws. We hope this effort provides a valuable resource for Muslims in the West, and we seek Allah’s acceptance and forgiveness for our work.
