The answer

A will is the donation of money after death, and it is recommended within the limits of one-third, and it is executed before the division of the inheritance. If the will exceeds one-third, the excess depends on the approval of the heirs. If the testator specified a particular beneficiary for his will, it is spent for that beneficiary. If he did not specify it, or said: "for the sake of Allah" or "in the way of Allah," it is spent on acts of righteousness and charity, such as giving to the poor, building mosques, and establishing educational institutions. The execution of the will must be expedited.
