Is the house considered the daughter's property after her father's death, or does it belong to all heirs, given that she possesses the title deed?

It is not permissible to revoke a gift after its acceptance, except for a father regarding what he has gifted to his child, but certain conditions must be met for that. If the daughter completed the construction of the apartment gifted to her, this is an increase connected to the gifted property, and it is considered a barrier to revoking the gift. Consequently, it is not valid for the father to revoke this gift after this increase. The apartment remains the property of the daughter, and she has a greater right to it than other heirs after her father's death.
