You should start negotiating your Prenuptial Agreement months before your wedding, if possible. Some states do not consider a Prenuptial Agreement signed within a week of the wedding enforceable, so do not wait until the day before your wedding ceremony to sign the Agreement.

Anyone can get a Prenuptial Agreement, no matter how much money you may or may not have. This is especially true if you want your marriage to abide by Islamic law. The Shariawiz Islamic Prenuptial Agreement is the only Islamic Prenuptial Agreement available online.

If you want your Prenuptial Agreement to be enforceable in the event of a divorce, then each of you must disclose all of your assets. That is because most states require "full disclosure" or even "full and fair disclosure" of finances prior to the signing of a Prenuptial Agreement. If one or both of you fail to disclose all of your assets, then a court may find your Prenuptial Agreement to be invalid and unenforceable since one party may have had unfair advantage in agreeing to the terms of the Agreement.

Your Shariawiz Islamic Prenuptial Agreement will include a schedule for each of you that will include your assets, your liabilities, and your income. You each will disclose this information during the question process.
