MUSLIM FARAID PRINCIPLES

Who inherits, and how much, when a Muslim passes away?

In Muslim Faraid Principles: The Islamic Law of Inheritance in Brief, Dr. Mufty Hafiz Luthfur Rahman Qasimy presents a clear, concise guide to the Qur’anic law of inheritance — one of the most important branches of Islamic jurisprudence.

This book explains, in plain language:

- The Qur’anic foundations of faraid (Surah An-Nisa and others)
- Who the primary heirs are and their fixed shares
- The conditions under which each heir receives a share
- How residuary heirs (asaba) are treated
- Common practical scenarios in dividing an estate
- Why the Islamic system of inheritance is just and complete

Short, structured, and easy to reference, this book is ideal for students, imams, and every Muslim family that wants to settle estates according to the command of Allah — with fairness, clarity, and peace of mind.
