What is the formula for property rights under Islamic inheritance laws?
Shares under the Islamic inheritance law depend on the closeness of relation to the deceased. Shares also differ when a person belongs to Sunni or Shia sect.
In Pakistan, Shia law on inheritance is based on the principles of Islamic law, specifically the Shia interpretation of Islamic jurisprudence. The rules of inheritance for Shia Muslims are outlined in the Quran, the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad, and the rulings of Shia scholars.
Under Shia law, inheritance is divided among the deceased's heirs according to specific rules and guidelines. The heirs' shares are determined based on their relationship to the deceased, with different shares allocated to spouses, children, parents, and other relatives.
In Pakistan, Shia Muslims can choose to follow the rules of inheritance outlined in Islamic law or they can make a will (wasiyat) to distribute their property according to their wishes. However, the will cannot override the rules of inheritance for certain fixed shares that are prescribed by Islamic law.
Shia Muslims in Pakistan need to consult with a knowledgeable religious scholar or legal expert to ensure that they are following the correct rules of inheritance according to Shia law.
