There are numerous references relating to Wills from the
Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (may the peace and blessings of
Allah be upon him). Simply reflecting on just a few of these references ought
to make one realise the importance of writing an Islamic Will.
Quran
It is prescribed, when death approaches any of you, if he
leave any goods, that he make a bequest to parents and near relatives,
according to reasonable usage; this is due from the God-fearing.” (Surah Al-Baqarah,
v 180)
It is the duty of every Muslim who has anything to
bequeath not to let two nights pass without writing a Will about it. (Sahih al
Bukhari)
Can you afford to delay writing a Will any longer?
