Wasaya Wills and testaments ٚ٤ٕٝ
Wills and testaments. Bequests. Allah Ta'ala commands us to
make a bequest of our goods to our parents and next of kin. See
Holy Qur'an, Al-Baqara (2):180. The exact manner of
distribution of one's goods is complicated and therefore should
be studied very carefully before writing out one's will.
Basically one can bequeath up to one-third of one's property to
whomever one wishes, but the remaining two-thirds must be
divided between one's surviving relatives in fixed shares, as
delineated by the Qur'an and the Sunnah. Singular: Wasaya.
