Wills & Probate /Islamic Will

Islamic Laws particularly Inheritance are different from English Law. Therefore if a Muslim dies without an Islamic Will, his/her assets and belongings will be distributed as per the English rules of Intestacy and not the Islamic Law of Inheritance. So, at At Law Dale Solicitors, we suggest that all Muslims make an Islamic Will and not worry about making provision for the shares of the heirs as they are fixed and pre-determined in Shariah. Apart from this our legal advisors may help you in:

  • An Islamic Will, making sure that your burial takes place according to Islamic rituals
  • Compliance with Shariah and Islamic Wills in discharge of charity (Zakat) unpaid during your lifetime
  • Your Islamic Will you can give money to a charity or Islamic institution which derive posthumous benefit from this when you die
  • An Islamic Will that gives the Testator the opportunity to help someone who is not entitled to inherit from them (such as an orphaned grandchild)
  • The Will that can be used for the appointment of Guardians for children.
  • It is obligatory for all Muslims to make an Islamic Will, particularly for those living in countries subject to different laws.
  • You can be assured that our advisors will help provide you with the legal expertise to ensure that your Will is fully Shariah compliant whilst also meeting the legal formalities and requirements of English Law to ensure that it is valid within the United Kingdom and will stand up to scrutiny in a Court of Law.
