Reciting the Qur'an for the deceased in the mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: What is your opinion regarding those who stay for three days to recite the Qur'an in the mosque after the burial of the deceased?
Answer:
This is a blameworthy religious innovation (bid'ah) and it is not permissible. One should make du'a' for the deceased, seek forgiveness for him, and give charity on his behalf; this is what has been transmitted. As for reciting the Qur'an for the deceased, there is no evidence for it. Likewise, doing so in the mosque and setting it for specific days, as the questioner mentioned, all of this has no basis. Yes.
