No. The grandchildren have no right to claim grandfather's property.

Dear Querist
I agree with Adv. Archana, but if the father of the child has expired he can file a suit for his father's share as his legal heirs.

Muslim personal law does not confer any inheritance right to a grand son in grand fathers owned property ;however he can claim through a predeceased father.
