Alep FaraidIslamic Wills & Inheritance Planning
Use the free calculator below to estimate who may inherit from you and their respective Faraid shares. Then understand how those shares may actually apply to your property, CPF, insurance, nominations and other assets.
Select the family members who would survive you to get an estimated Faraid distribution according to the Shafi'i mazhab.
Based on Mazhab Shafi'iTick who survives, and set the number where relevant. Automatic hijab (blocking) rules are applied for you.
This is calculated according to Mazhab Shafi'i, using fixed Quranic shares (fard), residuary (asabah) rules, and 'awl (proportional reduction) where shares exceed the estate. In Singapore there is no radd — any portion not allocated under faraid passes to Baitulmal, rather than being returned to the heirs. Hijab (blocking) rules between heirs are applied automatically as you enter your family.
Now let's look at what those numbers actually mean for your family.

What actually happens may also depend on:
How the property is owned.
Whether valid nominations exist.
Bank accounts, investments and overseas assets may require different treatment.
Dependants, minors and your existing arrangements matter too.
Who depends on you.
What you own and how it is structured.
What you want to achieve.
From there, we identify whether any further planning is actually needed.

Assalamualaikum, I'm Alep.
I'm a Singapore-based Islamic inheritance planner and Islamic Will writer, and founder of Istishari Islamic Services.
I help Muslim families understand how Faraid, property ownership, CPF and insurance nominations, Islamic Wills and other arrangements fit together — based on their actual family and assets.
Before doing this full-time, I worked in the financial advisory industry, giving me practical experience with insurance, nominations, investments and financial assets.
Where an Islamic Will is required as part of the plan, I personally guide the family through the planning process and draft the Will accordingly.

"Mr Alif from Istishari walked us through the entire process from understanding Faraid to setting up a proper Will without making it feel overwhelming or complicated. Mr Alif knows his stuff, explains it well, and genuinely makes sure you leave with clarity."
"Our Zoom session was informative and reassuring. Ustaz Alep explained the differences between Faraid and Hibah clearly, using practical examples that made the concepts much easier to understand."
"During our appointment he explained everything patiently and made the process simple and reassuring. Thanks to his guidance, I now have peace of mind knowing my estate is well-planned for my loved ones."
Yes. The initial consultation is free, with no obligation to proceed with further planning.
Yes. We can review your existing Will together with your assets, nominations, family circumstances and intentions to understand whether the overall arrangement still achieves what you intended.
Faraid determines the entitlement of eligible heirs to assets forming part of the estate. An Islamic Will can serve other purposes, such as appointing an executor, documenting permitted bequests and leaving appropriate instructions for the administration of your estate. Whether you need one depends on your circumstances.
Not necessarily. The treatment of an asset may depend on its ownership structure, nominations, contractual arrangements and other circumstances.
Packages typically range from $700 to $1,500, depending on the complexity of your family circumstances, assets and planning needs. Where applicable, the package includes your Islamic Will together with the relevant inheritance planning documents. Your initial consultation is free. We will first go through your situation, what you already have in place and what you actually need. I'll explain the recommended planning and the cost clearly before you decide whether to proceed.
None of us knows when our time will come.
But we can make things easier for the people we leave behind.
Message Alep to start planning around your family, assets and intentions.
