Islamicwills.co.uk (Farani Taylor Solicitors) Basic Islamic Will
Islamic Estate Planning in England
Fixed-fee solicitor-drafted Islamic will at GBP 250 plus VAT from the Islamic Wills Department of Farani Taylor Solicitors, a London firm regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA ID 560013, City Solicitors Ltd, Company No. 07664373). The Basic plan targets estates under GBP 325,000 and includes an initial telephone call, identification of inheritance tax liability, a Shariah-compliant will drafted within seven working days of complete information, and free will storage - but no in-person meeting. The team claims over 30 years of experience in Islamic will writing and 40,000+ clients across England and Wales, operating from Mermaid House, 2 Puddle Dock, London EC4V 3DB. Fees are per person, not per couple (crawled islamicwills.co.uk, 2026-08-06).
Farani Taylor's Islamic Wills Department is the pick for people who want a regulated solicitor rather than an online form - the SRA badge, fixed fee and free storage make it the safest pair of hands among the widely marketed UK Islamic will services. The honest gap is scholarly disclosure: for a service whose selling point is Shariah compliance, naming a reviewing mufti would close the one advantage the online players (IFG's named Mufti sign-off) still hold. Fees are per person rather than per couple, so budget GBP 500 plus VAT for spouses, still under most private-client hourly engagements.
Pros
- Full SRA regulation and solicitor accountability, which online Islamic will services lack
- Transparent fixed fee with defined inclusions and turnaround
- Free storage included
- Deep IHT awareness including nil-rate and residence nil-rate band planning
Cons
- No named scholar or published Shariah certificate - Islamic accuracy rests on the firm's stated specialisation
- GBP 250 plus VAT per person is roughly triple IFG's online price, and couples pay twice
- No in-person meeting on the Basic tier
- Add-ons at GBP 250 plus VAT each escalate costs quickly

Why It's Halal
The firm drafts wills so that at least two thirds of the estate passes to the fixed Quranic inheritors under faraid, with the remaining third available for wasiyyah bequests including Sadaqah Jariyah, and covers Islamic funeral and burial provisions (immediate release for burial, avoidance of routine post-mortem in favour of MRI where possible, organ donation preferences). Honest caveats: no scholar or mufti is named and no Shariah certificate is published - Islamic accuracy rests on the department's 30 years of stated specialisation rather than documented scholarly oversight; the upside is full SRA regulation, which the online services lack (crawled 2026-08-06). The two-thirds/one-third split follows classical faraid rules: fixed Quranic heirs receive their prescribed shares while the wasiyyah third can go to non-heirs and charity, which English testamentary freedom permits but intestacy law does not.
