There are three modes of Succession under Muslim Law. The first is that duties are to be performed after the demise of an Indian Muslim, such as payment of funeral expenses, payment of wages, debts and execution of Will. Once everything is done, the remaining is distributed among the heirs.
Secondly, the share is distributed between heirs and successors.
The third stage is when there are absolutely no legal heirs of the deceased, and Government inherits the entire property.
