Bismillāhi Raḥmāni Raḥīm 
Date:    7th Dhul-Qahdah, 1441 A H / 29th June, 2020
Subject:   Al-Farā’id (The Islamic Law of Inheritance) 
Lesson:   69
Topic: Al-Radd (Shares Redistribution or Return of Residue): Part 3
Sub-Topic: Modern Application of Al-Radd in some Muslim Countries
Dear Esteem Participants, welcome to today’s class!
Today, we are looking at the modern application of al-Radd principle in Muslim countries. In the last eight decades, al-Radd doctrine has evolved under different applications in some Muslim dominated countries. In Sudan, a judicial pronouncement of 1925 allows the residual estate to be given to the widow (wife) through reversion (al-Radd) in the absence of other legal heirs. The law was also reported to be in vogue in Pakistan with the right of residue reversion postponed to that of “Acknowledged Kinsman” while in Egypt and Syria, the widows are given the same right of inheriting the residue with no condition attached. 
Also, in Tunisia, widows are allowed to partake in al-Radd process with other Qur’anic heirs in the absence of male agnate, daughter or agnatic granddaughter if there is any residue at all while she is also allowed to inherit the whole property in the absence of the Qur’anic heirs. In the same vein, as applicable in Tunisia, daughter inherit all properties in the absence of other Qur’anic heirs by way of al-Radd even in the presence of agnates (such as brother or uncle of the deceased). 
Inshā’ Allāh, in the next class, we are looking at practical examples of  al-Radd application.
Jazākumullāhu Khayran for reading today’s lesson.  
Yours in Islām

Inheritance of a Missing Person under Islamic Law by Abu Aisha (Part 2)

Bismillāhi Rahmāni Rahīm  Date:   21st Rajab, 1441 A H / 16th March, 2020 Series 2:   Al-Farā’id (The Islamic Law of Inheritance): The Theories   Lesson:   56 Topic: Inheritance of the Missing Heir (Mīrāth Al-Mafqūd): Part 2   You are welcome to today's class on inheritance law in Islām!!! In our last class, we defined who Al-Mafqūd is. He or she is someone whose whereabouts are unknown and it is not certain whether he or she is alive or dead. We also said that there are a lot of contentious debates among the four schools of thought and various jurists as regard whether the missing person can be a beneficiary of estate devolution as a potential heir or would he or she be inherited in absence by his legal heirs.  In solving these questions, the scholars propounded verdicts on the waiting period, Al-Mafqūd’s shares as heir, appearance of Al-Mafqūd and the Iddah of Al-Mafqūd’s wife/wives. However, due to limited space, we shall be discussing the verdicts one after the other: Waiting P

Similarities and Differences between Al-wasiyyah and Common law Will (Part 3)

Bismillāhi Raḥmāni Raḥīm  Date:  7th Muharram, 1442 A H /  26th August, 2020 Subject:   Al-Farā’id (The Islamic Law of Inheritance)  Lesson:   81 Topic:  Al-Waṣiyyah (Sharī‘ah-Compliant Will/Bequest): Part 7 Sub-Topic:  Similarities and Differences of Al-Waṣiyyah (Bequest) and Common Law Will (Lesson 3) Dear Participants, In our last class, we enumerated some similarities between Al-Wasiyyah and the Common law Will. Today,  Inshā Allāh, we are looking at the differences between the two and what distinguished the former from the latter as the most appropriate method of writing Will in term of content, application and appropriateness. In nutshell, some of the differences between the two are: 1. Al-Wasiyyah was divinely promulgated by Allah (See Q2: 180-182); hence, its uniformity while the Common  law Will world over was a product of man’s discretion; hence its discrepancy from a county to the other. 2. The maximum bequeathal a Muslim (Testator) can give out as testamentary disposition (
