Hello,
We are a Muslim family and hence the question is related to property inheritance with regards to Muslim Personal Law/inheritance.
My father has 6 brothers and 2 sisters.
My father died in 2010. Other 4 brothers and one sister died before him. One sister died around 2015
The last brother (my chacha) died last year. He was unmarried and hence no wife/kids.
The question is with regards to our inheritance to his property.
I now have my sisters, my cousin brothers (my father’s brother’s sons) and my cousin sisters.
I am listing below the currently alive sons/cousins –
Our family – 1 son, 2 daughters
Father’s first brother – 4 sons, 1 sister, 1 mother
Second brother – 2 sons
Third brother – Didn’t marry – no wife/sons
Fourth – Father’s sister – 2 Daughters
Fifth – Father’s sister – 2 Sons
Sixth brother -2 sons
Questions -
- Can you advise us the correct Islamic basis/Shariah Law of property distribution for the above people – the correct percentage distribution.
- One of my father’s sister does not have any sons, then as per Islamic law – Do we have some right in her share of property?
- Do my sisters and cousin have any rights in the property of the Father’s unmarried brother?
