Dear Client,
As per Muslim Law the owner of the property will have absolute right to deal with the property till his life. After his death the property will be shared among all nearer heirs. Muslim Law does not recognize any inheritance from property of their grand father like in Hindus. To answer the query you must inform about all the members of the family of grand father. If any nearer relative is there, he will succeed the entire property excluding the remoter heir like grand son. If A and B are sons of grand father and B died before grand father dies and after the death of B his father i.e., grand father died and A is the only nearer legal heir and he will succeed the entire property of his father excluding B`s wife or B`s sons are daughters. Then daughter in law or its children i.e., grandchildren after the death of their father from grand father`s property will not be inherited. Take expert advise by giving complete details about family member of grand father.

There is no joint property or joint family concept in muslim law. The share falls to your husband (if he died after the death of his father) you and your children are entitled in it. ( If he died before the death of his father, no share in the properties of his father, so no one of you are eligible to claim any share in it)
