I, [FULL NAME], residing at [address], born [date of birth],

and testament, revoking all previous wills.

1. DECLARATION OF FAITH

   I die upon Islam and upon the way of the Ahl al-Sunnah wa'l-Jamāʿah.

2. FUNERAL & BURIAL
   Ghusl and kafan per Sunnah, ṣalāt al-janāzah, and burial in the nearest Muslim cemetery without delay, avoiding excessive spending.

3. DEBTS
   All my lawful debts and outstanding religious obligations (unpaid zakāh, kaffārah,
   fidya for missed fasts, mahr, etc.) shall be settled from my estate before any
   distribution:
      (List debts here or leave to executor to ascertain.)

4. EXECUTOR (WAṢĪ)

   Should they be unable or unwilling to act, I appoint [alternate executor]
   as alternate executor.

5. GUARDIAN OF MINOR CHILDREN

6. BEQUESTS (LIMITED TO ONE-THIRD OF NET ESTATE)
   Subject to the Sharīʿa limit that bequests may not exceed one-third of my net
   estate, and that no bequest may be made in favour of a legal heir except with
   the unanimous consent of the other heirs after my death, I direct the following:
   (None specified.)

7. DISTRIBUTION OF RESIDUE
   The residue of my estate, after payment of debts, funeral expenses, and the
   above bequests, shall be distributed among my legal heirs strictly according to
   the fixed shares (farāʾiḍ) prescribed in the Qurʾān (Sūrat al-Nisāʾ, verses
   11–12 and 176) and the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, as determined by a
   qualified scholar at the time of distribution.

8. GENERAL
   If any part of this will is invalid under the civil law of the jurisdiction in
   which my estate is administered, the remaining provisions shall continue in
   effect. My executor is directed to seek any additional orders required from the
   civil courts to give effect to the Sharīʿa distribution above.
