A Last Will and testament is a legal document that ensures your estate will be distributed upon your passing.
When you return to Allah (SWT), will your family be able to fulfill your Islamic duty (fard)?
An Islamic Will offers more than just legal protection - it provides spiritual peace of mind knowing your legacy follows Shariah principles.
"It is prescribed that when death approaches any of you - if they leave something of value- a will should be made in favour of parents and immediate family with fairness. This is an obligation on those who are mindful of Allah". (Surah Al - Baqarah 2:180)
This ruling should be understood in light of the inheritance laws in Surah An - Nisa 4:11-12, which give specific shares to parents and close relatives. Relatives who do not have a share may get a bequest up to one third of the estate.

As a British Muslim, your legacy deserves the protection of both worlds. Whilst traditional Wills offer testementary freedom, your Islamic Will honours the divine wisdom of Shariah principles revealed in the Quran (Surah An-Nisa 4:7-14 & 176). These important verses ensure that your estate will be distributed exactly as Allah has ordained.

Your Islamic Will represents a bridge between Islam and the English legal system - ensuring your final wishes are both spiritually authentic and legally enforceable. Whilst following the inheritance guidelines commanded by Allah, your Will must also satisfy English legal requirements (Wills Act 1837) to protect your loved ones from unnecessary complications during their time of grief.

"I’ve been scouting the legal market to create an Islamic Will for my retired parents, so believe me when I say it’s been far from a walk in the park when searching for a solicitor’s firm, and a solicitor that lives and breathes the understanding of Sharia law and blending it with English law. But then came Farani Taylor Solicitors and Zahur Chowdhry, head of Islamic Wills in the Wills and Estate Planning department and it was a massive relief. From my first telephone conversation his 30+ years of experience really shone through, being very diligent and highly knowledgeable, understanding my parents needs and suggesting the best option, with a clear well-guided explanation. Furthermore, he was also flexible to my timeline and requirements as I wanted the work completed in a short timeframe while being attentive and informative throughout. I hoped for total support from Zahur when I instructed him, but I got so much more. My heartfelt thanks for your excellent work on my parents behalf. You’ll definitely be recommended without reservation".
