Sunni Fara’id Shares, Calculated and Explained.

Automatically compute every heir’s Islamic inheritance entitlement — fixed shares, residuary ‘asaba, ‘awl reduction, radd redistribution and blocking rules — each one cited and explained, with legal-grade reports and accounting disbursement.

The problem

Distributing an estate under Sharia law is mathematically intricate: Qur’anic fixed shares, gender-based ratios, heir-blocking rules, and surplus or shortfall corrections (‘awl, radd) all depend on exactly which heirs survive the deceased. Sharia-compliance officers, estate lawyers, and waqf administrators still calculate these shares by hand or in spreadsheets — a slow, non-auditable process that exposes contested estates to legal and religious risk.

The solution

Islamic Inheritance Management runs a deterministic fara’id engine that computes every heir’s entitlement — fixed shares, ‘asaba, ‘awl, radd and blocking — then explains and cites the governing rule for each one. Review the proportional breakdown, export a signable PDF or Excel distribution report, and post heir payments directly to Odoo Accounting.

Capabilities

Everything a fara’id calculation needs

Every capability below is implemented in the module.

01

Automated Share Calculation Engine

A deterministic, pure-Python fara’id engine computes every heir’s fixed share (fard) and residuary (‘asaba) entitlement directly from the Qur’anic rules — no manual calculation or spreadsheets.

02

Awl, Radd and Blocking Handled Automatically

The engine applies proportional reduction (‘awl) when shares exceed the estate, surplus redistribution (radd) when they fall short, and heir blocking (hajb) — the edge cases where manual methods fail most often.

03

Rule-Level Explanations with Citations

Every heir’s result includes a plain-language reason and the governing rule, so you can explain and defend each figure to beneficiaries, courts, or regulators — no black-box output.

04

Visual Proportional Breakdown

A proportional stacked bar and legend show exactly how the estate splits across heirs, with the applied denominator and whether ‘awl or radd was triggered — comprehensible at a glance, even to non-specialists.

05

Pre-Built Family Templates

Apply ready-made family structures — spouse plus children, parents plus spouse, siblings only, and more — to start every case from a valid heir configuration instead of building one from scratch.

06

Inline Validation and Guidance

Real-time checks flag impossible or incomplete heir configurations — such as two husbands or a missing required relationship — before you calculate, preventing invalid distributions upfront.

07

Legal-Grade PDF and Excel Reports

Export a formatted, signable distribution document grouped by heir category, with per-heir reasons and citations — ready for probate, court, or client files.

08

Accounting Disbursement

Turn computed shares into action: create draft Odoo Accounting payments for each heir with a linked contact, so the tool finishes the job instead of handing it back to a spreadsheet.

09

Heir Notifications and Full Audit Trail

Send ready-made entitlement e-mails to heirs, and track every change to a case in its chatter log — the complete history a contested-estate or regulated Islamic-finance context requires.

Workflow

How it works

1

Open a Case

Create an inheritance case for the deceased, enter the gross estate value and any deductions — the net distributable amount is tracked automatically.

2

Add Heirs

Add heirs one by one or apply a pre-built family template, with inline validation flagging impossible or incomplete configurations before you calculate.

3

Calculate Shares

Run the fara’id engine to compute each heir’s fixed share, residuary portion, or blocked status — with ‘awl and radd applied automatically and a reason for every result.

4

Report and Disburse

Export a signable PDF or Excel distribution report, notify heirs by e-mail, and create draft Odoo Accounting payments for each entitlement.

The engine implements the mainstream Sunni fara’id consensus, including fixed shares (fard), residuary heirs (‘asaba), blocking (hajb), proportional reduction (‘awl), and surplus redistribution (radd). Shia and cross-madhhab rule variants are not included in this version.
