Ja'fari (Shia) inheritance differs materially from Sunni faraid — for example in how daughters and the absence of sons affect the estate, and in the treatment of certain relatives. CalcuPK will not apply Hanafi rules behind a Shia label. A dedicated, independently-validated Ja'fari calculator is in development; until it is ready this page does not compute shares.
Educational estimate, not a religious or legal ruling. Actual inheritance depends on sect, personal law, lifetime gifts, jointly-owned assets, legal title, succession certificates and provincial procedure. Consult a qualified Islamic inheritance scholar (mufti) and a Pakistan-based lawyer before distribution.

Ja'fari (Shia) inheritance follows rules that differ materially from Sunni faraid. CalcuPK will not apply Hanafi logic behind a Shia label, because that would produce incorrect shares. A dedicated Ja'fari engine is in development and will be published only once its logic is independently validated against authoritative Shia references.
In the meantime, see the Hanafi inheritance calculator for the Sunni approach, and consult a qualified Shia scholar for a Ja'fari estate.
Frequently asked questions
Ja'fari (Shia) inheritance uses a genuinely different framework from Sunni faraid, and applying Hanafi rules behind a Shia label would produce wrong results. Rather than fake a toggle over the same engine, CalcuPK is building and validating a separate Ja'fari calculator, and will publish it only once its logic is confirmed against authoritative Ja'fari references.
