Succession under Muslim law is perceived to be strict and rigid but poses justice and fairness; these are not the word of an individual but a quote from attorneys and authors. If you examine it in more detail, you will be surprised to see this principle in property devolution in Islam. Children get their estates rights from their parents and vice-versa. Parents own estates rights from their Children and vice-versa as per Holy Holy Quran 4.11-12. You will be surprised to see this principle in Islamic succession: everyone in the family has property rights. In other laws, you would rarely see this reciprocal balance.

To conclude, the Islamic way of sharing legacy is a unique method of estate distribution. There is wisdom hidden behind that, not many people realize and appreciate. It provides the assets' rights in balance and in the most fair way.
