Question: Can heirs claim their share of inheritance before the death of their father?

Answer: As long as the father is alive, the wealth will belong to him. The children have no right to it. It is only upon demise of the father that the heirs will be entitled to wealth of the estate of their deceased father in proportion to the shares stipulated by the shariah. [Fatwaa Rahimiyyah Vol3/Page 259]
