Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on giving charity on behalf of a deceased person?

Answer:
It is recommended; giving charity on behalf of a deceased person is recommended. This is because Sa'd ibn Ubadah asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): My mother died suddenly, and if she had been able to speak, she would have given charity. May I give charity on her behalf? He said: Yes, give charity on behalf of your mother.
