This query is : Resolved
I have a query I'm very confused about it. Hope you'll help me out The question is Can law of reversion applies on Mother's property when she had both son and daughter but son died before her and mother survived by daughter. The case is like this: Lady died and left her property but her son died before her even her husband too. Now she left only her daughter and her property. Now her Daughter is claiming for her property alone Can her lady's brother claim property? Under Muslim law
Under Muslim law, when a mother passes away leaving only a daughter, the daughter is the sole inheritor of her mother's property. The law of reversion does not apply in this scenario as there are no other surviving relatives who could claim a right. Therefore, the daughter has exclusive claim to the property, and her deceased son's family has no entitlement.

Only the daughter has a right to the property of her mother. Brother's family either wife or children have no rights over the property.

Conceptually in real estate, reversion is defined as the right to resume possession or ownership of a property after a period of time has elapsed or certain events have occurred. The reversionary interest is often held by the original owner of the property and it takes effect upon the happening of a specified event.
None other than daughter is surviving in the instant case; then where is the question of reversion of property is involved.
