Question
The deceased had made wasiyyat that the share which a son will obtain should be given to his grandchildren (the children of his son who had died before him). He was survived by his wife, 3 sons and one daughter. Is this wasiyyat valid? If yes, how should this wasiyyat be fulfilled?
Answer
The wasiyyat is valid. First calculate the shares of all the heirs then allocate a son's share for the wasiyyat. After paying the wasiyyat, the heirs will receive their respective shares in the balance.
