The Best Deeds in Being Dutiful to Deceased Parents
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Sister Aishah from Jeddah asks: Is being dutiful to deceased parents done by praying for them and dedicating the reward to them? And what are the best deeds in being dutiful to them?
Answer:
Prayer is a physical act in which there is no representation, so it belongs to the one who prays. As for the deceased, what benefits them, if Allah accepts it, is charity on their behalf, supplication for them, and performing Hajj or 'Umrah on their behalf.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh
