๐ช What Happens if Property Has Multiple Heirs?

Last Update 3 days ago
When a property owner dies without a will (intestate), the property is divided among legal heirs under Islamic inheritance laws.
Steps to Inherit:
Obtain a Legal Heirship Certificate from the civil court
Submit the certificate along with death certificate to the local revenue office
Get the property mutated into the names of all heirs
Important Points:
No heir can sell the entire property without written consent from all other legal heirs
If one heir wants to buy out others, execute a formal gift deed or sale agreement
Joint ownership must be disclosed in any resale attempt
Tip: Legal advice is strongly recommended in such cases to avoid family disputes or litigation.
