📌Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Guide To Writing an Islamic Will Notes 1- Note that it is better to seek permission of the Executor(s)/Trustee(s) of your will. Failure to do this and listing someone without their permission does not mean the named Executor/Trustee will carry out their duties; they can even refuse to act. 2- A Will should be updated from time to time. A change in the circumstances may require one to change his/her Will.
📌For example if one of the Executor passes away then, a new Executor for one’s Will should be immediately appointed. 3- Note that only permanent wives can inherit, wives on a temporary contract with a man cannot inherit from his estate, although children from a such wife would be entitled to inherit. 4- Children from a divorced wife/husband are entitled to inherit. Only legitimate children can inherit. 5- Note that adopted children are not lawful heirs and should not be listed here.
📌Note also that if you have a child(ren) who you have given up for adoption, then that child(ren) must be listed here. 6- It is advisable to seek permission from the guardian before writing his/her name here. * It is advisable to have all your bank accounts in joint names, where either of the account holders can operate it.
