In Islam, specific rules and guidelines for the inheritance and distribution of wealth are outlined in the Qur’an and the Hadith (sayings and actions of the Prophet Muhammad). Estate planning can help Muslims ensure that their assets are distributed in a way that is consistent with these religious principles and can help prevent conflicts or disputes among heirs.

Estate planning ensures that your wishes are carried out in the event of a demise and that your loved ones are cared. It can also help minimize taxes and avoid probate, a legal process that can be time-consuming and costly.
