The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is the ruling on completing the recitation of the Qur'an and then dedicating the reward to the deceased?
The Shaykh:
There is no evidence for this. Some scholars permit it because it is a righteous deed, but there is no evidence for it. Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
He should make du'a' (supplication) for them. When he completes the recitation of the Qur'an, he makes du'a', he makes du'a' for himself, and he makes du'a' for his parents and for the Muslims when completing the recitation of the Qur'an. Yes.
