JOINT FAMILY PROPERTY/BUSINESS IN MUSLIMS LIKE HINDUS IS UNKNOWN.LAW OF INHERITANCE IS ALSO NOT ON COPARCENARY BASIS.LETS CHECK UP IF ANY THING IS THERE LIKE!!!!!!!!
J K Agrawal (Expert) 04 February 2009
Concept of Joint family is not there in Muslims but other laws like law of contracts, law of estoppel and all other laws are applicable. If a property is purchased or developed by efforts of many people of family and the intention of parties was to divide the property one day it comes under law of contract or all other civil laws.

A proper study of your case may give to you a way.
