The answer

A son who dies after his parents is entitled to a share of their inheritance, and his share does not lapse due to his death before taking possession of it. His share is transferred to his heirs, including his children. His children inherit their father's share from their grandfather's estate, not directly from their grandfather. Inheritance cases must be referred to Sharia courts or religious scholars consulted to verify the heirs, wills, debts, and other rights before distributing the inheritance.
