Islamic Wills and Estate Planning FAQs
What makes an Islamic will different from a standard will?
An Islamic will follows inheritance guidelines from the Quran and Sunnah, ensuring assets are distributed according to Sharia. It differs from a standard will by specifying fixed shares for heirs and including religious directives.
Is an Islamic will legally valid in New Jersey?
Yes. As long as your Islamic will meets New Jersey’s legal requirements, it will be valid. Our firm ensures your will is both Sharia-compliant and legally enforceable in NJ.
Do I need a lawyer to create an Islamic will?
While DIY templates exist, a lawyer helps you avoid costly mistakes. We offer personalized legal drafting to ensure your Islamic will is complete, clear, and legally sound.
Can I still choose guardians for my children in an Islamic will?
Yes. Islamic wills allow you to name guardians for minor children, which is a crucial component of estate planning for Muslim families.
Do you offer Islamic trusts?
Yes, we offer trusts that can be customized to comply with Islamic principles. Pricing varies based on complexity — schedule a consultation to learn more.
Can I make charitable gifts (sadaqah or waqf) in my will?
Yes. Islamic law allows you to allocate up to one-third of your estate to non-heirs, including charitable giving. We’ll guide you on how to do this properly.
