Inviting neighbors to eat and reciting the Qur'an on behalf of a deceased father

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: One of the brothers' father passed away seven months ago. Is it permissible for him to invite the neighbors and brothers to eat at his home and recite the Qur'an, intending it as charity that reaches his father?

Answer:
This has no basis in this manner. If he wants to benefit his father, he should give charity on his behalf with this food, giving it to the poor and the needy.
