(Fatwa: 480/402/B=1432)
If your nana (grandfather) wants to distribute his property in his lifetime, he will have to distribute equal shares to all his sons and daughters. If he deprives any son without any Shariah reason, he shall be sinful. It is mentioned in hadith that Almighty Allah will deprive him from Jannah (paradise). Your nana should fear Allah and should not spoil his hereafter.
