Discovering a debt on the estate unknown at time of distribution

السؤال

Dear scholar, As-salamo 3alaikom Wa Rahmato Allah Wa barakatoh... my question is about inheritance. my father died in 1996 and left us(me, my mom, my two brothers, and my grandma(his mother)) a pharmacy. I and my brothers were still young to take our share in our hands, so my mother supervised. The competent court gave a certain price for that pharmacy and therefore a certain monthly income from it to each of the heirs according to the Islamic division. We continued to give our grandma her monthly due till she decided to sell us her share in 2000. During this period (from 1996 till 2000) she seemed to be unsatisfied with the monthly due that the court decided ; however, we gave her medicine, nearly monthly, costing nearly 1 / 2 her monthly due besides her monthly due. We agreed to give her the money for her share by installments monthly. She died shortly after that agreement. We continued to give the rest of her share to her sons and daughters (my uncles and aunts). Six months later, some taxes appeared to have been imposed on the pharmacy for the period from 1985 till 1995 (which is before my father's death, and consequently before the court gave the pharmacy its price). Are we to ask my uncles and aunts to pay my grandma's share in the imposed taxes (the sixth) ? or we don’t have the right to ? Thanks for your time... Gazakom Allah
