Question:
Is a bequest from a grandfather to his son's son valid while his son is alive?
Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. A bequest to an heir is not valid, and as long as the son's son is blocked from inheritance by the presence of his father, there is no harm in his grandfather making a bequest to him.
