What is the ruling on selling an apartment that was disposed of without the knowledge of the father, who is ill with Alzheimer's, with the aim of protecting it from the paternal aunt, knowing that the waiver process was carried out in a manner that may raise legal suspicions, and is it permissible to conceal some documents from the buyer to avoid legal accountability and hinder the sale?

You were not authorized to dispose of the apartment by transferring its ownership from your father to your mother and siblings. However, since your father has passed away, the apartment now belongs to you according to your inheritance share from your father. Its sale by you is permissible by Islamic law, and you are not required to provide the documents that prove the previous waiver.
