Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Pakistan

Sir, I am male, 45 years old, muslim, belonging to shia sect, living in Pakistan. My father had two marriages. Both his wives had died before his death. I am his only child from the first wife, while there are one son and two daughters from his second wife. After the death of my father my these step brother and step sisters claimed that my father had given me "AAQ" and made a written WILL declaring that he has given me Aaq and is giving his all property, land and cash to them and I have no share in it. They have filed a case with senior civil judge attaching a wasiyat nama (will) and a published coppy of Aaq nama. This case is under hearing since three years. I am very much agonized by this. Please kindly tell me what is the legal position of this Will and Aaq, does it prohibit me from getting my share in my late father's property and how can I obtain my due inheritance. My father was living with his second wife and all the documents of property, bank accounts, passbooks etc are in the possession of my these step brother and step sisters. Thank you.

The aaq nama has no legal value,so far you share in the ancestral property is concerned and so does the will if it doest declares the rights of the rightful shareholder.in fact each of the son is the sharer of 2/6 and daughter is 1/6 in the total property left by your deceased father.you can contact me on my cell no 03234638149 during office hours.
