Is the testimony of the brothers and mother considered false if they testify that the father directly sold a plot of land to the eldest son – which did not happen – so that the eldest son could distribute it to those rightfully entitled, in order to fulfill the will of the grandfather and father to distribute the land among the brothers by right, and to bypass the law of the "Hasbi Council" (Guardianship Council) which mandates transferring the father's property to his minor children until they reach 21 years of age?

This matter must be presented to the Sharia courts for adjudication. It is not permissible to bring false witnesses to testify that the father sold you the plot of land, because bearing false witness is forbidden. The Sharia court must be informed of the truth of the matter so that it can distribute the land among its rightful beneficiaries and hand over the rights of the minors to the authority responsible for their wealth until they reach maturity.
