The answer

We understand that your share and your mother's share of your father's inheritance are an apartment and a shop. Your mother's new husband has no right to your father's inheritance unless your mother dies while he is married to her, in which case he inherits one-quarter due to the presence of her children. There is no need to ask about a hypothetical matter that has not yet occurred. It is permissible to sell your shares and buy a property in your name if your mother has no children other than you, as this would be a gift from her, and justice among children must be observed in such gifts.
