MUSLIM LAW - POWE OF ATTORNY

KAMARAJ BHARATHY G (Querist) 02 January 2009 This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir,
My muslim clients' father has executed a power of attorny (for house) in 2000 in favour his one another daugter, who is sister of my clients. Thereafter clients father has expired in 2004. Then the power of attory has sold the property in 2008. My clients raising the share in the house property. My query is whether the power of attorny holder can sell in 2008 while the principal expired in 2004 and the power is valied?

Is any different in share between the daughters and sons in muslim law of a deseased father inta state( without making of will) If yes kindly give the ratio detais between daughters and sons

I need to look into matter of PoA, But merely give PoA didn't make any difference in the share of the heirs and according to Muslim Personel if mother is alive then she get 2/16 = 1/8 , from the total share Plus amount Dawar (Meher i.e, security money) if not paid by husband than amount of meher is to be deducted from the husband property

After that daughter will get half of the son i.e., 2:1

I agree with Amjad sir regarding the share of the Son and Daughters.

Regarding the selling of the House by the agent after the death of the principal is not valid.
