Inheritance of property in Muslim law comes only after the death of a person, any child born into a Muslim family does not get his right to property at his birth. If an heir lives even after the death of the ancestor, he becomes a legal heir and is therefore entitled to a share in the property.

How would the property be demarcated / boundary specified in the sale deed ?

An undivided share can be sold out because under Muslim Law shares are fixed.
Hope your fathers name is mutated in revenue records as Legal heir. Because under Muslim Law Succession opens after the death of father.

Thanks Saquib

Yes..My father's name mentioned in revenue record.
How can we sell my father's share without partition? Means through which document we can sell it...Sale deed or any other?
