The findings indicate that it is possible to modify the KHI’s standards regarding future generations who attain achievement despite resistance from conservative factions and varying interpretations of Islamic doctrine. The report underscores the necessity for alterations, emphasizing advantages such as enhanced gender equality and women empowerment. Furthermore, it tackles the intricacies of crafting provisions by Islamic principles while staying pertinent. This research illuminates the challenges and opportunities in modifying regulations related to the inheritance of future generations within Muslim communities.
