U have not mentioned what kind of property it is, whether ancestral or self acquired by the father? If U want to get it distributed by muslim law, U have to state whether U are a Shia or a Sunni.How did UR elder brother acquire 2 acres without actual division?

Property is to be distributed as per your personal law. Consult local lawyer.

U have not answered mu questions

There is no such terms as ancestral property in Muslim law of inheritance. Whether your father is alive?, whether you have sisters either married or unmarried?, whether your mom is alive?, whether the property was left behind on Will in all three favor? Muslim personal law will govern the partition issue, you may consult a local lawyer with relevant papers/documents.
