Inheritance

Q:

1. Why has an illegitimate child not been made a beneficiary of the wealth and money of his father, moreover he can't adopt his name, socially not an individual which other child can be. In spite of him being innocent, why has he been refused with all the bounties a child enjoys?

2. If his mother and father repent for their deeds, still the child will be facing all the hardships and trauma of not being a legitimate child. Would the father still be liable for his zina even after repenting? If not then how would the child be given justice for something which his parents did and he is being paying off?

Q: Can parents make a joint will or is it better to be written individually?

Q: My father passed away leaving behind: 5 Daughters 2 Sons and 1 late Son (with 2 children). On the day that my father passed away, he said to my brother in law: "If I die today then the Big Shop is for my eldest son, The small shop is for my other son, And my own house is for my grandsons, The other 5 shops are one for each of my daughters." What does Shariyah Law say about the distribution of the heritance in this case? What is valid? Shariyah or Wassiyah?
