If your father ran the business for some time, then it is an inheritance ought to be given to all inheritors. In fact then each inheritor has their particular shares in that shop. If only you is working in the shop, then you should take a salary agreed by your shareholders, then distribute the profit amongst the inheritors. You may propose to buy the shares of the inheritors. Note that the sister will have half the share of the brother. The mother will inherit, if alive, one eighth.
