Inheritance

Question

If a person’s father passed away before his grandmother (i.e. Father’s mother) and the grandmother was inheriting from her grandmother will the grandsons inherit from the grandmothers estate while they are other brothers and sister of the father still living?

Answer

The grandsons will not inherit if there is a son.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
