Question
A man has 5 sons. In one of his properties one son was living with his children. This son died while the father was still alive. The deceased son's family continued living in the house. The father has now died. What is the status of this house? Will it be for the family of the deceased son?
Answer
The house will be inherited by the four living sons and any other heirs, e.g. parents and wife. The family of the pre -deceased son are not inheritors in this case.
