A tool designed to compute the distribution of assets upon death according to Islamic jurisprudence considers factors like the deceased’s surviving relatives (spouse, children, parents), their gender, and the type of assets. For instance, a hypothetical scenario involving a deceased man with a wife, two sons, and a daughter would see the tool allocate specific portions of the estate to each heir based on established Quranic guidelines.
This computational aid offers clarity and efficiency in estate settlement, minimizing potential disputes among heirs by adhering to established religious principles. Historically, Islamic inheritance law, derived from the Quran and the Sunnah (prophetic traditions), aimed to ensure equitable distribution of wealth within families and across generations. This digitized approach facilitates a streamlined and transparent process, particularly valuable in complex family structures or across geographical distances.
