Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Does the reward of reciting the Qur'an reach the deceased, and likewise voluntary Hajj?
Answer:
Voluntary Hajj, yes, it reaches him, because there is evidence regarding performing Hajj on behalf of the deceased and on behalf of the living person who is unable to perform the obligatory Hajj. The living person who is unable to perform the obligatory Hajj has Hajj performed on his behalf. As for voluntary Hajj on behalf of the deceased, there is no harm in it. As for reciting the Qur'an, there is no evidence for doing it for the deceased; there is no evidence for this. Yes.
