Shariah Academy has published the 2nd edition of Islamic Law of Inheritance: Practices in Pakistan by Dr. Shahbaz Ahmad Cheema, Professor of Law at University Law College, University of the Punjab.
The author has thoroughly revised this edition and added significant material on the use of information technology and online inheritance calculators in the field of inheritance. Furthermore, the book presents a comprehensive study of both the theoretical foundations and practical application of Islamic inheritance law in Pakistan, bridging classical jurisprudence with modern legal practice. In addition to the traditional law, the book analyses its application by Pakistani courts, e.g., Section 4 of the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance and the applicability of Law of Limitation to the matters pertaining to inheritance.
We hope this updated edition will continue to benefit students, researchers, legal professionals, judges, and everyone interested in Islamic inheritance law in Pakistan.
