sharers and residuaries will share the properties. In the self acquired properties during the life time he can dispose the properties, only after the death his legal heirs will succede the properties male will get double the female always.
Mohd., system of inheritance is very complicated if you want detail you can refer the Verma's Mohd., law.

A Muslim can dispose of 1/3 rd. of his property, according to his choice by gift or Will.No Probate is required. For the balance 2/3 rd., the Rules of Succession as per Mohammedan Law will apply. This however, does not apply to sale of the property during the lifetime of the owner by the owner.
