According to the Shariah Laws of Inheritance and Succession, distribution of an estate will only commence after the funeral expenses, debts (including legal costs) and bequests (if any) made to non-heirs (which will not exceed one-third (1/3) of the estate after debts and funeral expenses have been settled). Thereafter, all assets form part of the net estate and will have to be distributed according to the Islamic Law of Succession and Inheritance. ^[1]
