Abstract

This work is a translation from Arabic of a booklet on inheritance law in Tunisia originally written by Abdelmagid Zarrouki. The booklet deals essentially with the question of equality between men and women in the Islamic law of inheritance as incorporated under Tunisian law.

In addition to the main translated text, the book contains also a forward in which the translator explains why inheritance law in Tunisia should be modified.

Finally, the booklet provides also an English translation of the chapter on inheritance as currently in force in Tunisia.
