Disclaimer

Please read this disclaimer carefully before using Wassiya's platform or relying on any document generated through our service.

EN | FR

1. Not Legal Advice

Wassiya is a document-generation platform, not a law firm. The information, templates, and documents provided through this website do not constitute legal advice and do not create a solicitor-client or lawyer-client relationship.

The documents generated by Wassiya are provided for informational and convenience purposes only. They are not a substitute for the advice of a qualified lawyer or notary who is familiar with the laws of your province and your specific circumstances.

We strongly recommend that you have any will or estate document reviewed by a licensed legal professional before signing.

2. Not Religious (Fatwa) Advice

Wassiya incorporates general Islamic inheritance principles as commonly understood by mainstream Sunni scholarship. However, this platform does not issue fatwas or religious rulings.

Islamic inheritance law (Mirath/Fara'id) can be complex and may vary depending on scholarly opinion, school of jurisprudence (madhab), and specific family circumstances. Our platform presents one generally accepted approach and may not reflect every valid scholarly position.

We strongly recommend consulting a qualified Islamic scholar or organization before finalizing your estate plan.

3. Provincial Law Variation

Canadian inheritance and estate law is governed primarily at the provincial level. Requirements for valid wills — including witnessing, notarization, and signing formalities — differ across provinces and may change over time.

While Wassiya provides province-specific guidance based on generally accepted practice at the time of development, we cannot guarantee that the guidance is current or complete for your specific province and situation.

Notable differences include the requirements in Québec (notarial wills), British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, and other provinces. Wassiya's guidance is general in nature and should not replace province-specific legal advice.

4. No Guarantee of Legal Validity

Wassiya does not guarantee that any document generated through this platform will be recognized as legally valid by a court, probate authority, or government body. Legal validity depends on factors outside our control, including but not limited to:

  • Whether the document is signed and witnessed in strict compliance with your province's requirements
  • Whether the testator has legal capacity at the time of signing
  • Changes in applicable law after the document was generated
  • Specific family circumstances that may affect the document's enforceability

5. Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these terms or any disclaimer excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, waives a mandatory consumer right, or prevents a complaint to a regulator, a court claim or participation in a class action. There is no mandatory arbitration requirement. You may contact support to try to resolve a problem; doing so is not a condition for exercising your rights and does not extend legal time limits. Applicable consumer laws and legally available courts remain available to you.

You are buying a self-service document tool. Individual legal or religious advice, professional review, witnessing and notarization are not included. Read your entire document and follow the applicable signing instructions before using it.

Wassiya is a tool to help you write your will. You are responsible for learning about the law of your province and the Islamic rules that apply to you, and for having your will reviewed where needed. Wassiya is not responsible, before the law or from an Islamic point of view, for any incorrect or improper use of the platform or of the documents it generates.

6. Changes to This Disclaimer

Keep your account credentials secure and use the service lawfully. Personal information is handled as described in our Privacy Policy. We retain the version of the terms and order details you accepted, the acceptance date and language, and send a copy of the purchase agreement to your account email. Acceptance of these terms is separate from marketing consent.
