The answer

The death of a tenant does not invalidate a lease contract, according to the majority of scholars. The leased usufruct transfers to his heirs. Accordingly, the questioner's paternal uncles and aunts have a right to their parents' share of their son's inheritance. If the apartment was owned by its owner through deferred installments, then each heir has a share of the inheritance and is responsible for their portion of the deferred installment payment commensurate with their share.
