So far as the properties are concerned, if your sister's father is ready to give properties, tell him to Gift away the property in their name by delivering possession of the said property to the children. In Muslim Law, documents registration is not required but Delivery of possession is required.
So far maintenance is concerned the children can claim maintenance is concerned only 16 years child can claim maintenance.

Father in law should execute a HIBA (gift) if favor of your sister.

She can claim maintenance from her husband. Discuss with local lawyer.

It is mandatory to probate the WILL in areas of Bombay, Madras, Calcutta.
If WILL is the choice; preferably register the WILL.
The WILL can be contested.
The Sect/Sub-sect to which you belong may have some limitation on share of property that can be disposed by WILL etc say; 1/3rd.
Keep these in mind.
If Gift is the choice; preferably register the deed and take possession.

The FIL is willing so there is NO benefit in delaying.

Local counsels well versed with personal law that applies in your case and such matters can advise you and draft the deeds………

The senior deedwriter that are experienced may also help you.

Yes, the gift (HIBA) could be made and requires no registration. And maintenance for the sister and children could be secured through orders from the competent caourt.

Your own insights and knowledge of facts and intentions of one and all that are involved in the matter shall help you to decide the approach and preferences.
Generically speaking: The deed duly registered must be preferred in such matters. The conditional deeds (conditions in deeds) should be avoided.
One can even think of disposing the estate immediately after having accepted the gift.

Probably the FIL wants to settle the matter and avoid confrontations in his life time.
You and your sister can weigh other perspectives also and liberate from such relationship that is nothing other than a burden and settle own in life.
It is entirely your choice how you would like to handle the matter.
