Abstract

Being the last Book, the Holy Qur'an is complete and perfect in all aspects, including its laws regarding inheritance. Islamic law of inheritance is well defined in religious texts and they fulfil the needs of all times to come. On the other hand, other Divine Books as the Bible, dealt with only a particular nation or the group of people it was revealed to and do not have a thorough description of the issue of inheritance. There are several similarities and differences between Islamic and Christian laws of inheritance. The evolution occurring in Christianity requires continuous comparative studies for the academic and historical record. This paper aims to do a comparative analysis of laws of Inheritance in both of the monotheistic religions. In this research qualitative historical research method is used to present a comparison.
