- Planning for the future
One of the best ways to avoid stress and make decisions more confidently is dealing with issues before they arise.

Application of sharia law by the UK civil courts is restricted to the recognition and enforceability in English law. Our team of diverse Islamic and English law experts can help you with drawing specific clauses in your Islamic marriage contracts, pre-nuptial agreements taking sharia rules into account.
