Calculators & Planning Tools

11 free Shariah-compliant calculators and planning tools built for Australian Muslims.

Faraid β€” Islamic Inheritance Calculator

Calculate the distribution of an estate according to Quranic inheritance rules (Faraid). Applicable to Sunni Muslims.

Australian law does not automatically apply Islamic inheritance rules. To ensure your estate is distributed according to Faraid, you must have a valid Islamic will prepared by a solicitor. This calculator is a guide only β€” consult a qualified Islamic scholar and estate lawyer.

After debts & funeral costs

Surviving Heirs

Husband
Number of Wives (up to 4)
Number of Sons
Number of Daughters
Father
Mother
Paternal Grandfather (if no father)
Paternal Grandmother
Full Brothers

Select at least one heir to see distribution.

General guidance only β€” not a fatwa or legal advice. Consult a qualified Islamic scholar and an Australian estate planning solicitor.

Wasiyah β€” Islamic Will Planner

Plan your Wasiyah (bequest) within the permitted 1/3 limit under Islamic law. The remaining estate is distributed by Faraid rules.

Your Wasiyah is not legally enforceable in Australia unless written into a valid will witnessed by two adults. We recommend consulting an Islamic estate planning solicitor.

Mahr (Dowry) Value Calculator

Calculate a Mahr value in Australian dollars based on the traditional minimum equivalent to 10 dirhams of silver.

The minimum Mahr in Islamic jurisprudence is debated by scholars β€” a commonly cited minimum is equivalent to 10 dirhams of silver (approx. 31g of silver). This tool provides a current AUD equivalent. The Mahr should be agreed between both parties and ideally set higher as a gift.

$34 AUD

Based on 31.10g Γ— $1.10/g

Mahr is a gift from the husband to the wife and becomes her sole property. It is a right, not a payment. Consult your local imam or scholar for guidance on a suitable amount.
