[Inheritance of property]

السؤال

Asalamualikum, One of our neighbors "A" died at the young age leaving behind a son and a daughter and his widow. The father of the young Man "A" is denying any property to the bereaved family by saying that Islam do not allow any share to the children of the deceased person (Like "A") who had no property of his own but was living in a joint family system with his wealthy father. The bereaved family has instantly come to road. I want to know the system of property sharing in such cases according to the Islamic law. Besides is joint family system as is in vogue in our country allowed in Islamic culture. We usually do not share our property among our children till our death. Neither daughters nor sons are given any share. On the death of father (or both the parents) property gets transferred to sons only. In some cases there arise legal complications and people take refuge in Islamic law giving daughters according to the Qur’anic law. I want to know that Is this allowed to distribute some property among children during one’s life or is this proper to keep the property and leave it at the mercy of circumstances after one death. Kindly clarify. I hope a quick and detailed response from your good self. I also want to know who is answering / clarifying my questions.
