Islamic prenup in Florida.
Equitable distribution decides what your nikah cannot.

Florida judges have wide discretion to divide marital property by what they consider "fair," and the elective-share rule allows a surviving spouse to claim a fixed portion of the estate against any will. An Islamic prenup is the document that pins down mahr, preserves Faraid, and waives the alimony that has no Islamic equivalent.

The law in Florida

Three rules that change what your nikah does.

01

Marital-property regime: Equitable distribution

An equitable-distribution state. Marital property is divided by judicial discretion based on what the court considers 'fair' — which routinely produces 40/60 or 50/50 outcomes even where one spouse contributed substantially more.

02

Premarital agreement law

Florida Uniform Premarital Agreement Act, Fla. Stat. §§ 61.079 (enacted 2007). Florida requires premarital agreements to be in writing and signed by both parties; full financial disclosure is presumed unless expressly waived.

03

Elective share / surviving-spouse rule

Florida's elective share (Fla. Stat. § 732.201 et seq.) entitles a surviving spouse to 30% of the elective estate (which includes most non-probate transfers under § 732.2035). A prenup waiver is required to preserve Faraid against this default.

If you die without a will in Florida

What Florida does with your estate when no will exists.

Florida's intestacy statute determines who inherits and in what proportion when there is no will. The Quranic shares are not part of the calculation; the table below is what your family is actually left with.

You die with…Here is what happens
Children but no spouseChildren inherit everything.
Spouse but no childrenSpouse inherits everything.
Spouse and children — all shared between you and that spouse, and your spouse has no other childrenSpouse inherits everything.
Spouse and children — all shared between you and that spouse, but your spouse has children from another relationshipSpouse inherits ½ of your intestate property; your children inherit ½ of your intestate property.
Spouse and children — one or more from someone other than your spouseSpouse inherits ½ of your intestate property; your children inherit ½ of your intestate property.
Parents but no spouse or childrenParents inherit everything.
Siblings but no spouse, children, or parentsSiblings inherit everything.

Source: Florida Statutes §§ 732.101 to 732.111 (Intestate Succession). Distribution rules are summarized; talk to a probate attorney for edge cases (e.g. non-marital children, predeceased heirs, augmented-estate adjustments).

Notice what isn't on this table: Faraid. Your parents' Quranic share. Your siblings' Quranic share when you have children. The 1/3 wasiyyah you wanted to leave to charity. Florida intestacy law decides without any of that. An Islamic will plus an Islamic prenup — with a mutual elective-share waiver — is the only way to put the Quranic distribution back in control.

Islamic Prenup & Postnup

All 50 states
PrenupPostnup

Useful if you want to see a draft before paying. The free preview lets couples explore what an Islamic prenup looks like, but the download price is hidden until checkout, scope is narrower (no Muslim marriage contract, no Islamic wills bundled), and the workflow is jurisdiction-agnostic rather than state-customized. Smart trial; not a substitute.

Islamic Prenup Template

All 50 states
Prenup template

A drafting head-start, not a finished document. The $499 buys a template co-authored by Sh. Joe Bradford — but couples still need to retain their own family-law attorney to customize it for their state and execute it, typically adding $400–$1,500 in legal fees. Total cost almost always exceeds Shariawiz's all-in $999.

Marital and Prenuptial Agreements

All 50 states
Marital AgreementTransmutation agreement

A $44.99 transmutation agreement only — meaning it converts community property to separate property and nothing else. Useful as a narrow add-on if you live in one of the nine community-property states (AZ, CA, ID, LA, NV, NM, TX, WA, WI) and already have the rest of your Islamic prenup handled elsewhere. Not a full Islamic prenup on its own.
