Core Feature

Inheritance Calculator

Precision Faraid calculations grounded in classical scholarship

Our inheritance calculator implements the full complexity of Islamic inheritance law, handling scenarios that most platforms cannot. From basic distributions to complex cases involving multiple heirs across different categories, the engine ensures every share is computed correctly.

  • Automatic identification of eligible heirs based on family structure
  • Proportional reduction (‘Awl) when shares exceed the estate
  • Redistribution (Radd) when shares fall short of the estate
  • Blocking (Hajb) rules applied correctly per doctrine
  • Support for Wasiyyah (bequests) up to the one-third limit
  • Detailed calculation breakdown showing every step

Estate Planning

Hibah — Lifetime Gifts

Formalise gifts to anyone, free from the one-third Wasiyyah cap

Hibah is a lifetime gift under Islamic law — completely distinct from a Wasiyyah bequest and not subject to the one-third cap. You can gift cash, property, or any asset to any person, including non-heirs. Wasiyat is the first Indian platform to formally track, document, and integrate Hibah within a complete Shariah estate plan.

  • Not subject to the one-third Wasiyyah cap — gift any amount
  • Can be made to anyone, including non-heirs and charitable causes
  • Supports cash gifts, asset transfers, and promises of gift
  • Doctrine-aware: Hanafi permits revocable Hibah; Shafi‘i and Maliki require delivery for full validity
  • Link gifts directly to specific estate assets or family members
  • Gift confirmation delivered to recipients via email
  • Tracked separately from Wasiyyah in all calculations and document packs

India First

Waqf — Charitable Endowment

India’s first digital Waqf management within an estate plan

A Waqf permanently dedicates an asset for a charitable purpose — the principal is locked forever; only the income is distributed. From family Waqfs supporting education to community endowments for mosques and hospitals, Wasiyat is the only Indian platform that lets you plan, document, and track a Waqf as part of your complete estate.

  • Supported purposes: education, healthcare, mosque/madrasa, poverty relief, family Waqf
  • Perpetual or fixed-term Waqf types supported
  • Dedicate specific estate assets — land, property, or financial instruments
  • Appoint multiple trustees with name, contact, and role
  • Distribute Waqf income to named beneficiaries with percentage splits
  • Track income records and disbursements over time
  • Store registration number and official Waqf deed document URL
