Dying before the father prevents inheritance from him

Q 5: My eldest brother died in Sha`ban, 1397 A.H. and my father died in Ramadan, 1402 A.H. Does my brother inherit from my father? It should be taken into consideration that both of them left behind sons and daughters.

A: If the reality is as you have mentioned; that your brother died before your father, he will not inherit from him and his children will not inherit from their grandfather because they will be deprived by their uncles. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
