Published as Inheriting from one's maternal grandparents
Question
Do my daughters inherit anything from my in laws property? Both my in laws passed away and even my husband passed away 8 yeas ago. He has one older brother and 5 sisters.
Answer
If your in laws passed away after your husband then your daughters will not receive anything from their property.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
