Dear Sir,

In reference to your question, you should note that the Cyprian law will be applied by the Lebanese law, and accordingly the custody goes to the mother after your death; unless it is proven that she is not able to take care of the children.

Therefore, you do not have to worry about the application of the Shariha laws.
