What is the ruling on a mother disposing of some of her property to her only daughter while she is in good health, and does this fall under the inheritance that must be divided with the daughter's paternal uncles?

If the adult daughter took possession of the agricultural land and the two apartments that her mother gifted to her, and she acted as their owner, then the gift is valid, and they are her property. However, if she did not take possession of them, then the gift is void, and they are considered part of the estate and distributed among the heirs.

If the daughter was not an adult at the time of the gift, and there is disagreement regarding the validity of the mother's possession on her behalf, some scholars held that it is not valid, while others held that it is valid if the mother was her guardian.

If the mother left no heirs except two brothers, then the questioner (daughter) receives half of the estate, and the remainder goes to the two brothers if they are full siblings or paternal half-siblings. They receive one-third if they are maternal half-siblings.

We emphasize that matters of inheritance are complex and a mere fatwa is not sufficient. Rather, it is necessary to refer to the Sharia courts to verify the existence of other heirs, wills, debts, or rights that take precedence over the rights of the heirs.
