Will & Hiba

Wills and gifts are critical aspects of Islamic inheritance law in Pakistan, governed by The Muslim Personal Law (Shariat) Application Act, 1937, The Succession Act, 1925, and Transfer of Property Act, 1882.
1. Will (Wasiyat):
  • Under Islamic law, a Muslim can bequeath up to one-third of their estate to non-heirs or for charitable purposes through a will.
  • The remaining two-thirds must be distributed according to the Islamic laws of inheritance.
  • A will must be clear, unambiguous, and comply with the provisions of The Succession Act, 1925 for non-Muslims.
2. Hiba (Gift):
  • Hiba refers to the transfer of property during a person’s lifetime without any consideration.
  • Gifts are recognized under Islamic law, and the formalities for transferring property through Hiba are outlined in the Transfer of Property Act, 1882.
