Married in community of property
Question
I am married in community of property and not anti nuptial contract. Kindly let me know what I should do to correct this according to Islamic way and will.
Answer
You may write in your will that you no longer recognise the contract and you have committed yourself to the Islamic law of inheritance, and let it be known to your folks, family and heirs to be.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
