Zoharbee vs Imam Khan (D) 2025 INSC 1245 - Muslim Law - Matruka Property
Muslim Law- Matruka Property - The property, both movable as well as immovable left by a deceased muslim is called Matruka- matruka property simply refers to property left behind by deceased person and nothing more. Regarding the devolution of matruka property, Will is the first document that is to be satisfied subject to the limits imposed by Muslim Law, namely, that it cannot exceed one-third of the estate and cannot ordinarily be made in favour of an heir without the consent of the other heirs, and then whatever remains hereafter, is to be distributed strictly as per the rules of intestate succession prescribed in Muslim Law. (Para 8-9)
