Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about islamic estate planning in Maine

What is Islamic estate planning?

Islamic estate planning involves creating legal documents (wills, trusts) that follow Islamic inheritance guidelines. This includes the concept of Wasiyyah (Islamic will) which allocates up to one-third of the estate for charitable bequests, while the remaining two-thirds follows the prescribed inheritance shares (Faraid) outlined in the Quran.

Why do Muslims need a separate will or estate plan?

Without a proper Islamic will, state intestacy laws determine how your estate is distributed — which rarely aligns with Islamic inheritance guidelines. An Islamic estate plan ensures your assets are distributed according to both your wishes and Islamic law, while remaining legally enforceable in your state.

What is a Wasiyyah?

A Wasiyyah is an Islamic will that directs how your estate should be distributed after death. It typically includes a charitable bequest (up to one-third of the estate), designation of an executor, guardianship for minor children, and instructions for Islamic funeral rites. The remaining estate follows the Quranic inheritance shares.

Are Islamic estate planning services available in Maine?

What should I look for when choosing an Islamic estate planning service?

Consider whether the service creates state-compliant legal documents, includes Islamic inheritance calculations (Faraid), offers attorney review, supports all common documents (will, healthcare directive, power of attorney), and has scholar endorsement or Shariah oversight. Pricing and ease of use are also important factors.

How does Islamic inheritance law differ from conventional estate planning?

Islamic inheritance law prescribes specific shares for relatives (spouse, children, parents) based on Quranic guidance, with different allocations than most state default laws. A maximum of one-third can be bequeathed to non-heirs or charity. This structured approach means proper Islamic estate planning requires specialized knowledge of both Islamic jurisprudence and state law.
