This is my response to you:
1. The laws of Indian Succession Act will apply in your case;
2. Once your mother expired, she died intestate;
3. Therefore as per law, her share will go to you, your brother and other 3 siblings;
4. Therefore your brother cannot claim the whole property as his, because everybody can stake their claim.

As per your query,

As you belong to Christain community the property is governed by Indian Succession Act. Please note that, the property owned by your mother shall be equally divided among all his surviving children which would include your sisters too.
