Father died, mom not giving inheritance

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by ShariahBoard.org
Father died five years ago. Mum refuses to give inheritance to 2 sons yet one son and daughter stay with mum and enjoy dads home all are married, two older sons live in rented properties. Mom works says all house and money are hers. Make sabr for how long
In reality one should try to counsel the mother that if it’s father’s, then as she is entitled to it, the younger brothers and sisters are entitled to it, so are the elder brothers and sisters entitled to it. She should be told that everyone should be given their due share. If she doesn’t listen then one should be patient with her for it’s a means of great reward. But still every once in a while one should request her wisely about giving truthfully everyone’s share.
