Understanding Will Laws in Malaysia

In Malaysia, the rules on wills and estate distribution differ for Muslims and non-Muslims. For non-Muslims, the Wills Act 1959 requires a testator to be 18+ and of sound mind, with the will in writing, signed, and witnessed by two independent non-beneficiaries; holographic wills are allowed but more prone to challenge. For Muslims, inheritance follows Faraid (fixed shares for heirs such as spouse, children, and parents). A Wasiat may gift up to one-third of the estate to non-heirs without infringing Faraid shares, and Hibah allows lifetime gifts outside the Faraid framework.

The probate process (validating and executing a will) typically takes four months to two years, depending on complexity and court backlog. If someone dies intestate, distribution for non-Muslims follows the Distribution Act 1958, while Muslim estates are distributed under Faraid—often causing delays, extra costs, and family disputes, which highlights the value of proper planning.

Complex estates—e.g., those with foreign assets (which may need separate or ancillary probate) or business assets (requiring careful continuity planning)—warrant professional guidance to ensure documents meet legal requirements and achieve the intended outcomes.
