Abstract

Administration of Estates in Malaysia: Law and Procedure (2nd Edition) is an updated and highly readable book designed to provide an overview of the theoretical and procedural framework relating to estates administration for both Muslims and non-Muslims in Malaysia. This book focuses on the jurisdictions, scopes and procedures for estates administration by the High Court, Estates Distribution Division, Corporation (Amanah Raya Berhad) and Syariah Court, being the administrative bodies responsible for estates administration in West Malaysia. The discussion also includes the administration of estate in Sabah and Sarawak. The procedures are visualized in form of charts to illustrate the process flow of the administration process and sample forms are provided to serve as quick references to the process. This book analyses the execution of trust and wills which has the effect of determining the jurisdiction of the administrative bodies. The discussion also delves into the law relating to the appointment, powers, duties and removal of personal representative in estate administration. This book highlights the execution of wassiyyah and hibah and comparison between the concepts of charge under the National Land Code 1965 with the concept of al-Rahn in Islam.
