Answer simple questions, one at a time. Wasiyyah applies the Qur'anic rules of inheritance (al-Farāʾiḍ) to your family, drafts your will for Australian execution, and gives you a stamped PDF ready to sign before two witnesses.
Around half of Australian adults have no valid will. For a Muslim, that means the estate is divided by state intestacy formulas — not by the shares Allah prescribed.
A written, witnessed will is the only way to make the Islamic distribution legally binding in Australia. It also lets you appoint the right executor, name a Muslim guardian for your children, and record your funeral wishes so your family isn't guessing at the hardest moment.

About you, your family, your executor, your assets and your funeral wishes — one question at a time, in plain English. No legal jargon.
Our Fara'id engine applies the fixed Qur'anic shares, blocking rules, ʿawl and radd to your family — and shows you exactly which rule gave each heir their share.
Pay once ($49 demo), get a stamped PDF drafted for signing under your state's law — with executor, guardianship, funeral and superannuation clauses included.
Islamic inheritance is fixed by Allah in the Qur'an (4:11, 4:12, 4:176). It is not a choice — which is why our will builder starts with the calculator, not a blank page.
Spouse, parents, children, grandparents and siblings each receive their fixed fraction — ½, ¼, ⅛, ⅔, ⅓ or ⅙ — depending on who survives you.
Closer relatives can exclude more distant ones — a son blocks the grandsons, the mother blocks the grandmothers. We apply every rule and tell you who was blocked and why.
When fixed shares exceed the estate they are reduced proportionally (ʿawl); when there is a surplus and no residuary heir, it returns to the sharers (radd). Handled automatically.
Sons, fathers, brothers and other agnates take the remainder in strict priority order — with a male receiving the share of two females where prescribed.
Leave up to one-third of your estate to charity, a mosque, or anyone who is not already an heir. We validate the cap for you.
Australia lets you distribute your estate by will — so your Islamic shares become legally binding once your will is properly signed and witnessed.

Your will should change when your life does. Come back after a birth, a marriage, a divorce, a death in the family, or a change of executor or assets — edit your answers, the Islamic shares recalculate automatically, and your re-stamped PDF is re-issued for a flat $20 AUD.
Australian law (e.g. the Succession Act 2006 in NSW and equivalents in each state) lets you leave your estate as you choose, so a will that follows the Islamic shares is enforceable — provided it is signed by you in the presence of two adult witnesses who also sign. This demo produces a draft; have it reviewed by a lawyer before executing it.
The calculator follows the classical Sunni consensus positions on the fixed shares, and notes explicitly where schools differ (for example, the grandfather inheriting alongside siblings, where we apply the Hanafi position and flag it for scholarly review).
Super usually sits outside your will. Your will includes a clause directing your death benefit to your estate, and we remind you to lodge a binding death benefit nomination with your fund so it actually happens.
Yes — through the waṣiyyah. Up to one-third of your estate may be left to anyone who is not already a fixed-share heir. The builder enforces the one-third cap automatically.
Update whenever your family or estate changes: a child is born, you marry or divorce, a parent or sibling passes away, your executor changes, or you acquire significant assets. Open your will from the dashboard, change the answers, and the inheritance shares recalculate automatically. Re-issuing your updated, stamped PDF costs a flat $20 — a will that no longer matches your family can cause exactly the disputes it was meant to prevent.
The calculator covers spouses, children, grandchildren, parents, grandparents and all classes of siblings. Rarer cases (distant kindred, missing heirs, non-Muslim heirs) are flagged for referral to a qualified scholar.
