“Beta ji, this isn’t a buffet where you take fish from civil law and naan from Sharia. You can’t pick whichever law feels tasty today.

 

Civil Law (UK): Says you can leave your estate to anyone — even your cat, if you’re eccentric enough.

Sharia: Says inheritance is fixed — shares for spouse, parents, children, siblings, depending on your family situation.

 

The Clash

 

• Civil Will only: Valid in UK, invalid in Islam.
• Sharia-only: Valid in Islam, not enforceable in UK courts.
• The solution: One Will, written properly, that works in both systems.

 

Example:

 

Uncle ji knows a man who left everything to his wife in a civil Will. UK law carried it out. But in Islam? He deprived his children and parents. He thought he was being romantic; in reality, it was zulm (injustice).

 

Uncle’s Final Word

 

Two systems, one solution: draft your Will with someone who knows both. Don’t try to bend Allah’s rules to fit your feelings.
