Islamic Inheritance (Faraid)
Islamic inheritance law (Ilm al-Faraid) is one of the most important branches of Islamic jurisprudence. Allah has determined the shares of inheritance in the Quran (Surah An-Nisa, verses 11-12). The shares are fixed and cannot be altered by will. Before distribution, debts and funeral costs are deducted from the estate.
Key Principles
In Islamic inheritance: the husband receives 1/4 (with children) or 1/2 (without); the wife receives 1/8 (with children) or 1/4 (without); each parent receives 1/6 when there are children; sons receive twice the share of daughters; and remaining wealth goes to the closest male relative (asaba).
