Sell undivided property

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 05 September 2022 This query is : Resolved 
My father have ancestral undivided 40000 square feet property . Total 5 name mentioned on property (including my father).
Can my father sell his share in property as per Sunni Muslim law without partition?

Inheritance of property in Muslim law comes only after the death of a person, any child born into a Muslim family does not get his right to property at his birth. If an heir lives even after the death of the ancestor, he becomes a legal heir and is therefore entitled to a share in the property.

How would the property be demarcated / boundary specified in the sale deed ?
saquib (Expert) 06 September 2022
An undivided share can be sold out because under Muslim Law shares are fixed.
Hope your fathers name is mutated in revenue records as Legal heir. Because under Muslim Law Succession opens after the death of father.

Thanks Saquib

Yes..My father's name mentioned in revenue record.

If your father is alive he can sell it. Otherwise, your father's legal heirs can sell it.
