Question: My maternal grandfather owned a house. After his death, he had four heirs; wife, 2 daughters and 1 son. Property was not distributed among them due to the stubborness of elder daughter (as she doesnt want to sell house due to her own interests). Lately, his wife (grandmother), son and younger daughter also died. Now I have 2 questions

1. How this property will be distributed among the following heirs?

Elder daughter : Has no children
Deceased Son : Left 3 sons and 3 daughters
Deceased Younger daughter: Left 3 daughters, 1 son and husband

2.Is the elder daughter commiting some kind of sin by postponing the property distribuion?
