Caring for Your Family's Legacy, One Step at a Time

A wasiat is a written will under Islamic law, which takes effect after death and is limited to one-third of the estate for non-heirs. Hibah is a gift made during one's lifetime that transfers ownership immediately. Both are useful tools in estate planning, and the right approach depends on your situation. We will explain both clearly during your consultation.

While it is technically possible to apply without legal representation, the process involves careful preparation of court documents and can become complicated, particularly where there are multiple beneficiaries or disputes. Having a qualified practitioner manage the process helps avoid delays and errors that are difficult to correct later.

Timelines vary depending on the complexity of the estate, whether a will exists, and how promptly third parties respond. A straightforward matter may be settled in a few months; more involved cases can take longer. We keep you informed at each stage and do not leave you waiting without explanation.
