Your mirror will & wishes

Plan your estate together with Yusuf — two wills that mirror each other, with room for both of your beliefs. Everything here is clearly marked as legally binding or as guidance, and said in your own words.

Your estates: you're viewing your own estate (you: Owner). You also help with David's estate (you: Steward · Heir · co-Executor).

This is your space, and Yusuf's too. A mirror will lets the two of you plan side by side — each with your own beliefs honoured. Some of what you record carries legal weight; much of it is heartfelt guidance for the people you love. We mark every item clearly, and there's no rush — do as much or as little as feels right today.
Legally binding Carries legal forceDirections that take effect through your will or a formal document — like the shares your estate is divided into, or naming who will carry out your wishes.
Guidance Heartfelt, not enforceableWishes, reasons and messages that guide the people you trust. They should follow them — though the law doesn't force them to.
You've recorded six wishes & directions so far — your mirror will with Yusuf, faith-aware shares, funeral wishes, a charitable gift and two personal letters. Everything saves on its own as you go.

Plan your estate together

You and Yusuf can write mirror wills — two separate wills that reflect each other, so you plan as a couple while each will stays your own. This is legally binding: each mirror will takes effect on its own.

How mirror wills work. They aren't one shared will. Each of you keeps your own will, and either of you can change yours later. Mirroring simply copies your shared decisions across, so you don't enter them twice — you're always free to differ where your wishes differ.
Aligned with INHERIT · mirror wills · Scotland
Illustrative & provisional — not legal advice. Your wills are finalised with your solicitor.

Faith-aware shares

A mixed-faith couple can hold more than one set of wishes at once. Here, Yusuf's will follows Islamic faraid (fixed shares), while Scotland's own legal rights sit alongside for both of you. We show both, so your solicitor can honour your faith and Scots law together — nothing here is decided for you.

How your estate is shared
Faith wishes and Scottish legal rights, side by side
Legally binding
Islamic faraid — fixed sharesYusuf's wish: distribute his estate by the fixed portions set out in Islamic law.
Yusuf's will
Scottish legal rights (legitim)Protected shares of the moveable estate for a spouse and children — a will can't remove them.
Scots law
What faraid means. Under Islamic law, faraid sets fixed shares for close family — for example, a wife's share is one-eighth of the estate where there are children, and one-quarter where there are none. A person may also leave up to one-third of their estate as a bequest (wasiyya) to charity or others outside those fixed shares.
What legal rights (legitim) mean. In Scotland, a surviving spouse can claim one-third of the net moveable estate where there are children (one-half where there are none), and children share a matching portion. These rights apply to moveable property — savings and possessions — not to land or a home, and a will cannot remove them.
Both can be honoured together. Your will can set out shares that follow your faith, while your solicitor accounts for Scotland's legal rights. Family can accept what the will provides, or claim their legal rights instead. This page lays both out so the choice is informed — it doesn't decide it for you.
Aligned with INHERIT · faith-aware distribution · Scotland
Illustrative & provisional — not legal or tax advice. Shares depend on your family and are set with your solicitor. Inheritance Tax is UK-wide (the same across the UK); Scottish succession differs through legal rights (legitim) over the moveable estate.

Funeral & farewell wishes

What each of you would want at the end — recorded gently, and honoured. These are guidance for your family, kept alongside your wills. In a mixed-faith family, each person's wishes stand on their own.

Yusuf RahmanYour husband · Glasgow
His wishes
A prompt burial. Islamic tradition asks for burial soon after death — so his wishes are shared with family now, not kept sealed.
Washing, shrouding and the funeral prayer. Ghusl (washing), a simple shroud and the janazah prayer, arranged with his mosque community in Glasgow.
Burial, not cremation. A burial plot in keeping with his faith. Contacts for the mosque and funeral director are in the documents vault.

Your wishes — a gathering to remember
Your own farewell, in your own way
Guidance

A warm gathering rather than a solemn one — the folk songs you grew up with, a reading from Yusuf, and a walk by the Clyde afterwards for anyone who wants it. Bright colours, no dark suits.

Giving & faith-eligible charities

A gift to charity in your will can reflect your beliefs. Some charities are flagged as faith-eligible — for example, zakat-eligible causes — and some offer a free will-writing route.

Zakat and your will. Under Islamic law you can leave up to one-third of your estate as a bequest — a zakat-eligible gift can sit within that third. Faith eligibility is decided by the charity, not by us.
How listings work. A "Featured" or "Partner" charity is one we work with — it never affects ranking or which options you see, and we never charge you to leave a gift.

Letters & messages to loved ones

Written letters and recorded messages — the things a will can't hold. You choose whether each is shared now, or kept private until it's needed.

Dear Yusuf
A letter to your husband
Guidance

"Yusuf, we built a home out of two worlds and it only ever made us richer. Keep your faith close and keep mine safe alongside it — that's how I'd want the children, and everyone, to remember us. Look after Dad and Stephen for me."

A short message for Dad in Chester and my brother Stephen in Dublin — the two people I've done the most family planning with. Just me, saying the things that are easier out loud than on paper.

Recorded Released on a date you choose
Preview message Download a copy Kept private until released
Your wishes, your timing. You decide whether each message is shared with your family now — so it's never a surprise — or kept private until it's needed. You can change your mind any time. And you'll never be charged automatically: recording your wishes here is free, and always will be.

That's plenty for today if you'd like to stop. Everything you've written is saved and safe — there's no deadline and nothing left hanging.

Built on INHERIT v2

This demo is built on INHERIT v2 — an open standard for describing an estate. We show you honestly which parts of this screen the standard can hold today, which are planned, and which are still gaps.

  • Supported now0 entriesThe standard already has a place for this today.
  • Supported now · shared core0 entriesSupported by the part of the standard shared across our brands.

The 30 change proposals this demo relies on

A change proposal (ICP) is a tracked request to extend the standard. These are the ones behind the “Planned” features across all 32 screens — and the few already adopted and built. Where the standard has a written proposal we show its status from the standard’s own record; where it does not, we say so rather than guess.
