Wills and executors
 
Do you have executors for Shariah law wills here as in UK?

I have heard say that Shariah wills may make life a little easier but by no means easy.

Is there a company in the UAE you can actually appoint, that wont take your eyes out, not so much to ensure your will is carried out but to ensure your wife gets access to your account to live off. As I understand it even a joint account would not give her automatic access to it, also to do the running around to cancel DEWA etc and get all the deposits back that all add up.

Are there crematoria in the UAE?

Not sure about the first.
Crematoria, one in Jebel Ali and I believe another one coming somewhere. Possibly another in Al Ain.

You planning a murder? Sorry, a dreadful accident?

Probably a justifyable Christmas manslaughter...;)
