Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Some people say that the reward of charity given on behalf of a deceased person does not reach him unless it is from his own wealth. Is this correct?
Answer:
No, this is a restriction of what is broad. That is, Sa'd ibn Ubadah gave charity on behalf of his mother with the permission of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) from his own wealth, not from his mother's wealth. His mother had no wealth; she had no money. Yes.
