ABSTRACT
This thesis generally discussed the social change and its relationship to the practice of Islamic
inheritance. This study aims to investigate the impact of the social change in altering the
inheritance law. Data for this study were gathered through various Islamic literatures, books,
articles, seminar papers and other related materials. The findings of this study revealed that
the social change has influence on the altering of the Islamic inheritance law within the
community. However, the change was limited only for the law that was resulted from
maslahah al-mursalah, as wasīyyat al-wajībah problems that have been legislated laws in
Muslim countries, not the qat‘i laws as it was originally coming from the divine source. As
this study has several limitations, it was recommended that future studies need to examine
this matter more comprehensively due to some deficiencies in its application such as the use
of fiqh and ushul methods.
Keywords: Social change, Law change, Wasīyyat al-wajībah
1. Introduction
Social change is defined as the change within community which alters that particular
society.However, some social scholars give different point of view in what aspect caused the
alteration in society.
In a dominated Muslim society, the social change has occurred in the waypeople split
the inheritance. People divide their wealth or property based on the cultural background from
generation to generation; somehow, it triggers the disappointment for some heirs. However,
according to them, if the inheritance law is based on Islamic scholarsin fiqhmazhab, there will
be discrimination between heir and heiress.
The Islamic scholars acknowledged that the inheritance division has been settled in
Al-Quran and the supplementary explanation has been delivered by our Prophet through
hadith. In Islam, the heritage division has had a strong foundation. Some verses in Al-Quran
have often mentioned by Islamic scholars as the basic rules in heritage sharing, they are
found in Surah an- Nisa‟ verses 7, 11, 12 and 176. Additionally, the source of inheritance has
also explained by hadith. According to Ahmad Rafiq, Imam Bukhari explained aboutIslamic
law of heritage in approximately 46 hadith while Imam Muslim had 20 hadith. 3

Islam, through al- Quran and hadith, has provided detailed regulations in sharing the
inheritance, therefore, most of Muslims believe that the ruleshave been settled and cannot be
changed.
Yet, the development in Muslim society and its relation to social change has limited
the juristic resources of inheritance when they are only based on certain requirements. The
Islamic scholars think about several requirements which are not opposed by Islamic. The
requirements are made in order to give benefits for the humankind. It is due to the fact, most
of Muslim society do not want to follow the Islamic law in heritage sharing when they deal
with social behavior. They prefer sharing the property without looking at different sex. This
reality has been found in some societies who are considered to have a strong Islamic base
such as South Sulawesi, South Borneo and Aceh.4
It can be concluded that the cause of differences in splitting the inheritance is the
social changes happened within society. This social change is caused by the equity factor
between male and female. Somehow, this factor also becomes the issue of injustice between
heir and heiress while the rolesin acquiring social needs have been conducted together.
2. Definition of social change
Social change is defined as the alteration in community from one life phase to the
next phase. This is a phenomenon often found in a society. Social change can be in found in
modification, social institution or lifestyle. The change is important in social behavior.5By the
time, people change continuously and it occurs to provide the solutions for each of social
needs.6
Therefore, it can be said that the social changes go along society- based problems
such as demographic issues ( the change in the number of population or the society
movement from one place to another place ), economic issue ( poverty) or industrial issue (
farmers shift to be labors).
Furthermore, some social researchers has given different notion in defining social
change, such as Keoning who believed that social change refers to modifications in lifestyles
which caused by both internal and external factors.7

Additionally, Kingsley Davis said that social change is the change in
community‟sstructure and functions.8 Social change is a part of cultural change. For example,
if there is a labor organization in a capitalist society, it can influence the relationship between
labors and owners where it causes the modification in political belief.9
Social change is also understood as the change occurred in society from one life phase
to the next phase. Generally speaking, social changes can be said as social movement to a
better or worse life phase and the outcome of social change portrays the movement that has
been taken by that particularsociety. At the end, the society is pushed to adapt the new life or
they try to bring back the previous situation. It all depends on the society itself.10
Hans Gerth and C. Wright Mills identified social change as the change in social
structure: the roles, the institutions, and the growth of social community whether from the
aspect of social institutions or social roles.11
According to Robert M.Maclver, social change is “meant change in social relationship
“.12Ronald Edari added that social change happens within social institution and it affects the
social relationship from year to year.13
The social change also refers to the change in new norms which are considered as
resources for the unity of society. The change is seen as the solution for the new needs found
within community where the norms are considered more appropriate in building and
expanding the relationship with new community.14
Instead of those theories, there are more social science experts who define this
concept. However, all of those definitions show how a society can be easily influenced by
different factors which bring to the social change.
According to Steven Vago, different approaches are made to reach an ultimate unity.
In short, it can be seen that the concept of social change is a social phenomen on which
occurs qualitatively or quantitatively and conscious or unconsciously as well.15The

quantitative change occurs in social structure which affects the roles and function within
society.16
Therefore, it can be sum up that the notion of social change is defined as every
alternation happens in stucture, function, lifestyle and behaviour of society which influence
social system and this change will bring the outcomes for solving social problem by creating
the new value, function and norms in society.
3. Social change and its relation to inheritance division
History has shown that the socialization of inheritance division is not only based on
Al-Quran and hadith. These two resources are the main references in Islam, particularly
during the life of the Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be upon Him). After the death of
Muhammad P.b.u.h, there has been increasing number in Al-Quran and hadith interpretation
especially in understanding the Islamic law.
The social change has happened in every place and country, consequently, the law
system in some Muslim countries does not strongly follow the law anymore. There are some
changes madein heritage sharing especially the rights which are related to fatherless
grandchildren also known as the heir representative, also there is possibility to get a daughter
block the family from one lineage.
Five countries have had the answer to the problem of heritage sharing to those
fatherless grandchildren, they are Egypt,17Iraq,18Pakistan, Tunisia,19 and Syria.20. The law of
heritage in Egypt (1946) is taken care by an institution called wasīyyat al-wajībah (obligatory
testament); the heirs are considered to give testament directly to the fatherless grandchildren.
The portion of the property is as much as the right that should be received by the father or –at
least- a third of the heritage (a maximum number). InTunisia law (1959), instead of applying
the rules of this wasīyyat al-wajībah, the daughter also possible to prevent the heir from this
line.21

Then, Pakistan law (1961) also accepts the substitute heir, but only those who are the
lineal descendants22; males or females. Yet, it is different from the laws in Syria; wasīyyat alwajībahis only for heir and heiress not the ancestor from the female‟s lineage.23
The change of heritage division in Egypt is the right for the fatherless grandchildren,
which are prevented to get the ancestor rights through the testament. The testament is
legallycalled wasīyyat al-wajībah. Egypt law number 17/1946 manages this issue in its
chapters: 76-79, 24the translation is:
The official description of the laws mentioned that the pressure to include those
chapters are due to the complaint from the fatherless grandchildren who do not received their
heritage portion as they are blocked by their father‟ siblings.
Even though people usually make a will to the fatherless grandchildren, death is
something that is unpredictable and sometimes people has not had time to tell their will.
Therefore, the laws accommo date this unspoken will and consider it as has been said or
noted.
According to Abu Zahrah, it is often found that the fatherless grandchildren live in
poverty while their father‟s siblings usually have a good socio economic life. Those children
are suffering as they lost their father as well as their rights in heritage division. Sometimes
somebody is going to have a will for them but unfortunately he/she passed away before doing
so. Consequently,the laws take over this will which is not known by 4 Mazhab (sects), but. It
comes from some opinions of Islamic scholars.25
Based on 4 Mazhab, it has been decided that the law of family‟s heir who do not get
the heritage is sunnah.26This is based on the verses in Al-Quran related to heritage division
which has discussed the heritage rights for parents and other family members. Furthermore,
looking at history, Prophet and most of his companions (sahabat) did not give the will for
their family member.
Most of Islamic scholars reckoned that the obligation to give testament will remain
especially in solving any duties that have not paid yet such as debts, Zakat or kafarat. This
obligation has characteristics as ta’abudi and not qada’i, it means that the person will be

sinful when he/she does not do it. Yet, the court or the family does not have rights to force
the testator to speak his/her will.
According to Ibn Hazm, when somebody dies before giving the testament, the family
of deceased should give some of heritage portion to charity and the portion is considered to
be just right.27Ibn Hazm, furthermore, stated that to the family members who do not have the
share due to the difference belief, slavery or they are blocked.28 They do not have the
provision in the amount of the property they will get. So, it refers to the family considerations
as long as it still in a third of inheritance portion. However, Ibn Hazm limited the number of
the deceased family who receive the share. If the excluded family members in inheritance
sharing are a lot, so he should inherit to –at least – three people.29
From the explanation above, it can be conclude that there are two kinds of testament:
the obligatory testament and the sunat testament. The obligatory testament is for the family
who are excluded in inheritance division, while the sunna testament is up to the wish of the
testator. Moreover, the testator is free to choose the family member who will receive the will
limited to three people only.
When it is compared between the Egypt laws and Ibn Hazm‟s opinions, it can be seen
that the laws take Ibn Hazm‟s point of view as the reference in relation to inheritance sharing.
Yet, talking about who will get the inheritance or how much she/ he get, it depends on the
law decision. Ibn Hazm said that the heritage can be given to all the family or it can be
limited to three people. On the contrary, according to laws, the heritage is only be given to
those who tied by blood (have cognation relationship), there is no wasīyyat al-wajībah for the
eldersand the kins. Ibn Hazm stated that the minimum amount of wasīyyat al-wajībahis only
two –thirds (2/3) of inheritance, while the laws only give less than the permitted heritage
division or more than a third of inheritance. 30
From those reasons, the laws consider IbnHazm‟s opinion based on the social need of
Egyptians. Based the explanation above and also the laws in former years, there are no
discussion and dalil that become the foundation of these laws. 31
Coulson named the Egypt law adoption as quasi ijtihad. The possibility to use the
new term beacuse the law is considered as the new issue which did not exist years ago
(during the life or 4 Mazhab scholars). But, it doesnt functioned as a full Ijtihad as it still

relates to the previous islamic scholars‟ opinions.32Yusuf Al- Qardawy reflected wasīyyat alwajībah in the Egyptian laws as the compilation of selected ijtihad and creative ijtihad. When
we look at the name and its relation to prior Islamic scholars‟ ideas, this refers to selected
ijtihad. On the contrary, the content is considered as creative ijtihad by implementing
mashalah al-mursalah. 33
There are distinctive aspects between the Eyptian laws and the Tunisian laws (1959).
Wasīyyat al-wajībah is only applied to the grandchildren ( second generation) and it is not
for the lower generation.34According to the Tunisian laws, it is decided that the grandaughters
from male‟s pedigree are entitled to block the pedigreed relatives and they receive the
remaining wasiran from ar-radd.
Therefore, the laws implemented dalil called kalalahin taken from Mazhab
Ja’fariyah. For example: among a daughter, grandaughter, mother and siblings (brothers or
sisters), so the heritage division will be 3/6 for daughter, 1/6 for granddaughter, 1/6 for
mother (total: 5/6). The siblings are blocked by children and the remaining portion (1/6) is
given back to daughter and granddaughter based on the share ratio. If the father is still alive,
so he becomes the „asabah, and automatically it doesnt need to have ar-radd.
Iraq (1963) implemented the qarabah system from mazhab Ja’fariyah, it means that
the clan block the relative from one lineage. However, in application it has two
interppretations:when it uses Mazhab Ja’fariyah, so the rules are interpreted based on
mazhab Ja’fariyah. On the other hand, when the rules are sided with formermazhab, so they
will be adjusted based on MazhabHanafi. Somehow, they are different from those in Tunisia
where the remaining part of heritage is ar-radd and given to the existing dzawil furud.35
The more systematic rules are introduced in Pakistan through the Muslim family laws
ordinance, 1961; ordinance VIII of 1961,36the fourth chapter of the laws mentioned:
When there is still a daughter or a son from the deceased, and he passes away when
the heritage is intended to be given, so the children received the similar portion to the
portion received by their parents.37

According to these laws, in inheritance division practice, the grandchildren do not
inherit the wealth from their grandfather as they get blocked by son / daughter. Based on the
law makers, the blocking rules are based on the former Islamic era as the society tent to be
collectively responsible. The eldest male in “family group” is not only responsible for his
own son/ daughter but also for other family members including the orphans. In the early
Islam, they tend to live in one household.
Nowadays, the socio economic condition is changed; every family tends to form their
own households and the responsibility of the eldest males fade away compare to the early
Islam. And the rules linked to the blocking family member become irrelevant.
When we compare between the renewal laws and Hazairin‟s opinion, it can be seen
that the change in laws caused by urgent needs by using marsalih al-mursalah reasoning.
And they are, however, not out of the existing fiqh scope and concept. This is different from
Hazairin‟s opinion where it is more systematic and fundamental. He tried to think this issue
from comprehensive perspective without any bound to both the Fiqh and the Arabians‟
framework. According to a theory, the dominant factor in wasīyyat al-wajībahis the validity
of social change in Indonesia society38, it refers to the bilateral family system which is
different from the patrilineal Arabian system.
The alteration in the specific practice of Islamic inheritance, show a clear example of
a renewal aspects in sharia law. It is due to the fact that the Islamic law of inheritance comes
from Al-Quran and hadith, also, the fatwa from Islamic scholars found in Fiqh treasury which
is collected in a legally written law of a country. The renewal of sharia law is probably
occurred from the dynamic Fiqh and maslahat al-‘ammah based on several fiqh mechanisms
such as the principle of siyāsah syar’iyyah, takhayyur, talfiq and hiyal.39 Apart from the fiqh
mechanism, the change of law is also rooted from certain social conditions, like the change of
social customs, the alteration in social welfare, the urgent needs, the time development and
the emersion of the new systems.
It can be concluded that the change in heritage laws is the maslahah of the social
change at that particular time and it can guarantee a better inheritance sharing system to the
heirs. The change of laws in several places has been modified such as in Syria (1945), Egypt
(1946), Iraq (1951), Tunisia (1959), Pakistan (1961), Philippine (1977), and Indonesia
(1991).

Wasīyyatal-wajībah is aimed toprovide a legal system to the poor heirs but they are
blocked to get the heritage.40In one case between Nasir and his siblings (1380)41 it decided
that a third of the wealth from the deceased family member is given to the grandchildren as
they need that part compare to others.
The change in heritage practice is based on the socioeconomic context. It can be
proved that social change occurredby the time and different opinions from sunni, Ja‟fariyah
and other mazhab in Islamic inheritance practice are based on the intention to reach the
justice which may be different from one place to other places. The socioeconomic change
happened between husband-wife who works together to make a living also a causal factor of
social change in order to fulfill the social needs.
The change in the practicee of Islamic inheritance applied in one social structure has
been accepted and influenced the social system. This change is not related to society‟s
growthor regression. The indicators of society development are determined by the social
norms and values.
4. Conclusion
The change in the law of inheritance division for some Islamic countries in wasīyyat
al-wajībah are caused by two social change factors: first of all, nowadays, after the socio
economic alteration, every main family tends to have their own household and the sense of
responsibility of the oldest male for the closest group becomes less compare to this during the
first Islam existence. Then, the laws about the barrier become irrelevant.
Secondly, it is the poverty factor. The children who become fatherless often live in
poverty while their fathers‟ siblings live lavishly. The fatherless children are suffering from
both losing their father and losing the rights in heritage sharing. Therefore, it is important for
the president to consider these factors as it often becomes the complaint from the fatherless
children who do not receive any share in the wealth as they are be blocked by the father‟
sibling.
It needs to be underline that only law resulted from al-maslahah al-mursalah of these
Muslim countries which can be changed. This law is based on al-maslahah al-mursalah
theory which alters by the time. Yet, the qat‘i law in faraidh stay the same. The portions for
the heirs in Islamic inheritance are ½, 2/3, 1/3, ¼, 1/6, and 1/8, those called nasiban

mafrudha which are constant and they do not exclude from the existing fiqh concept. To add
or to fix some parts in heritage division practice is only the renewal context to keep pace with
the change in society.
