Why it matters

Put your wishes in writing.

The source site highlights possible difficulties for a family when someone dies without an Islamic will: children’s custody questions, estate distribution under Canadian law, family conflict, missing funeral instructions, health administration decisions, and a longer, more stressful process.

Its motivation is rooted in the Hadith cited on the original site:

“It is not permissible for any Muslim who has something to will, to stay for two nights without having his last will and testament written and kept ready with him.”
رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا: کسی مسلمان کے لیے جن کے پاس وصیت کے قابل کوئی بھی مال ہو درست نہیں کہ دو رات بھی وصیت کو لکھ کر اپنے پاس محفوظ رکھے بغیر گزارے۔
Bukhari 2738, as cited by Islamic Will Canada
