Q: Regarding inheritance/working out zakaat, an estate has only money, no business, etc. 

The house and car of the deceased was already given to his wife in his lifetime - it was accepted and agreed by all during his lifetime that it belongs to his wife. 

The person passed away 3 years ago - the estate got sorted out last week and shares were given. 

Must the zakaat be give for all the previous years while they were sorting out the inheritance? 

And when do they pay zakaat for the share that was received? Should it be paid now or would they wait for a year to pay it?

Q: A friend of mine had the habit of taking money from her mother in laws wallet. She now regrets the wrong she has done. What should she do to repay the amount she took. Her mother in law is now deceased. Please advise.

Q: I would like to find out if this method is correct. If not, what would be the best method? 

A man had a family. His wife passed away then he remarried. Before he passed away, he gifted his house to his wife. 

She is living in the house but she made wassiyat for it to be given to her husbands heirs when she passes away. 

She has brothers, nephews and nieces (some of them are aware and happy about her decision). 

Her husband's heirs were not yet told gifted or made owners of it.

Q: A man passed away, leaving behind his wife, a son, two daughters, a brother and a sister. 

Let's say he left an estate valued at $100,000. He had verbally expressed his wish to give one-third of the estate to charity, but there is no written will. 

How should his estate be calculated and distributed according to Islamic inheritance laws? 

Additionally, because the deceased was ill for the last six months and suffered from dementia, he was unable to perform Salah (prayers) during that time. Should Fidyah be paid for the missed prayers, and if so, from which portion of the estate?

Q: If a father passed away leaving debts behind (even though in his life he might have been a bit lax in trying to sort out things quickly), is it waajib on the heirs to settle the debts? Or will it be regarded as Ihsaan if they sort it out? 

Lastly, if the heirs do not have the ability to sort out things then what should be done?

Q: Can the wife of the deceased husband take ownership of the inheritance and withhold it from the children if she fears that her children will abandon her if they receive their share so she wants to withhold it till her passing? 

Q: Is it haraam to have a Western will? The Islamic ruling related to who inherit is not my preference, can someone out of my family also inherit?
