Inheritance

Q: My father made his will in September this year and in the event of his death my brother gets my father's assets. Unfortunately my brother passed away on the 04/10/2017 and my father also passed away on the 23/10/2017. My late brother is not married legally in court and did not have a will. My brother's wife has my father's title deed and will and doesn't want to give me anything that belongs to my father. Please advise what needs to be done in this situation.

A: The first step is that the estate must be distributed according to the shar`ee rules of distribution and winding up of estates.

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