I, ___________________________________________________, presently residing at
______________________________________________________ being of sound mind and memory,
do hereby revoke any and all former Wills and codicils made by me, and do make, ordain, publish and
declare this my LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT.
PREAMBLE
I bear witness that there is no deity but Allah, the One, the Merciful, Almighty God--Creator of the
heavens and the Earth and all therein--God of Abraham, Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, and all the
Prophets, mercy and peace be upon them. He is One God and He has no partner. And I bear witness
that the Prophet Muhammad is His servant and His messenger and last of all the Prophets, mercy and
peace be upon them all. I bear witness that Allah is the Truth, that His promise is Truth, that the
Meeting with Him is Truth. I bear witness that Paradise is Truth and that Hell is Truth. And I bear
witness that the coming of the Day of Judgement is Truth, there is no doubt about it, and that Allah,
who is exalted above all deficiency and imperfection, will surely resurrect the dead of all generations
of mankind, first and last and those in between. This is my counsel to my relatives and friends, my
Muslim brothers and sisters, and all those who remain after me, that they strive to be true Muslims,
that they submit to their Creator, may He be exalted, and worship Him as He alone is to be
