Why make an Islamic Will?

An Islamic Will (Wasiyya) is not merely a legal document — it is a profound act of worship, a fulfilment of trust, and a final gift of clarity to those you leave behind. The Quran commands:

"Prescribed for you, when death approaches any of you and he leaves behind any property, is that he make a bequest for his parents and relatives, in an honourable manner."
— Surah Al-Baqarah 2:180

The Prophet (peace be upon him and his progeny) is also reported to have said: "One who has not prepared a proper will at his death lacks magnanimity and intellect."

About the generator

ShiaJamaat has built a free, guided online Islamic Will Generator designed specifically for the Shia Ithna-Asheri community, taking into account the specific religious requirements of the faith — including Khums, Kazaa prayers, Mahr, and the distribution of the estate according to Shia jurisprudence.

What the Will covers

  • Personal details and appointment of an executor.
  • Religious duties — Khums, Kazaa (outstanding prayers), Mahr and other obligations.
  • Debts and creditors.
  • Assets — property, bank accounts, investments, personal belongings.
  • Digital accounts and access instructions.
  • Distribution of estate and final wishes.

Your privacy: ShiaJamaat does not store, log, or save any of your information. Your data exists only long enough to generate your document and send it to you.
Important: This generator is designed for England and Wales (Wills Act 1837). Those resident in Scotland, Northern Ireland, or outside the UK should seek independent legal advice. It is also strongly recommended to prepare a legally binding UK Will alongside this document.

Legal questions

An Islamic Will prepared using our generator is intended to be a valid Will under the Wills Act 1837 for England and Wales, provided it is properly signed in the presence of two independent witnesses who also sign the document. For complex estates, significant assets, or specific legal concerns, we strongly recommend also consulting a qualified solicitor.

The generator is designed specifically for residents of England and Wales under the Wills Act 1837. Those in Scotland, Northern Ireland, or outside the UK should seek independent legal advice regarding Will preparation under the law of their jurisdiction before using this tool.

Yes. You can return to the generator at any time and complete a new Will. A later properly executed Will revokes an earlier one. Keep your most recent Will in a safe place and let your executor know where it is stored.

For those who would prefer personal guidance from a qualified Shia Alim — particularly where complex religious matters arise or where English is not a first language — an Assisted Will Service is available. Contact ShiaJamaat to arrange an appointment with a registered Shia Ithna-Asheri scholar, in person or remotely.
