Islamic Wills, Trusts & Prenuptial Agreements
Faith-Aligned Legal Planning by Attorneys Who Understand
At Triangle Legal, we help Muslim clients plan their estates and protect their families while honoring Islamic values. Whether you are looking to create a will, set up a trust, or prepare a prenuptial agreement, we offer Shariah-compliant legal services tailored to both your faith and North Carolina law.
🟢 Islamic Wills
An Islamic will ensures your estate is distributed according to the principles of fara’id (Quranic inheritance), while meeting the legal requirements of North Carolina.
Our Islamic Wills Include:
Specific shares for heirs in accordance with the Qur’an and Sunnah
Provisions for zakat, mahr (dowry), and unpaid debts
Naming of guardians for minor children
Optional tahkim (Islamic arbitration) clauses
Burial and funeral instructions

Appoints trustees and successor fiduciaries
Provides for guardianship and special family needs
Option to include waqf (charitable giving)
Bundled with health care documents, POAs, and pour-over wills

Key Provisions May Include:
Mahr (dowry) amount and terms
Separate or joint property ownership designations
Post-divorce support expectations

“Naji helped me with some landlord trouble when I was moving out. I was legally required to pay fees that I was not aware of in my contract and I didn’t know what to do. Naji helped me go through my lease and I was able to lower the outstanding balance by more than half! I will definitely be using them again in the future.”- Bakr H.
