Islamic Shariʿah

Islamic Shariʿah

Islamic law forms a foundational part of the UAE’s legal system, with many aspects of family, inheritance, and financial law shaped by Shariah principles. Our Islamic Shariah advisory practice supports clients in structuring transactions, personal arrangements, and estate planning that are fully compliant with Islamic jurisprudence while also integrating with civil and common law environments like those in the DIFC and ADGM. Our services include:
  • Drafting of Shariah-compliant wills and family arrangements;
  • Structuring of Islamic finance products and investment vehicles;
  • Legal advisory on Zakat, waqf, and Shariah governance frameworks;
  • Islamic inheritance planning, succession structuring, and family settlements; and
  • Representation and support in proceedings before Shariah courts and tribunals
