Charity on behalf of the living and the dead

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah conceal his faults. His charity, her charity, he says: This is on my behalf and on behalf of my mother and on behalf of…

The Shaykh:
He complains; the words are innumerable.

The questioner:
Indeed, he is the best of the Bedouins; he covers the dead and the living.

The Shaykh:
If the disbeliever, if he disavows Satan, the poor, intending it on his behalf and on behalf of his father and his mother and on behalf of his wife and on behalf of his children, for whoever he wishes.

The questioner:
All correct.

The Shaykh:
You see that you should strike.

The questioner:
Every charity, because how am I regarding it?

The Shaykh:
It is all on the river of reward.

The questioner:
There is no harm in the enumeration, yes.

The Shaykh:
Yes. Not generally, generally, he has something he wants to send, whether a donation or the performance of an obligation. It is not his right to be lenient, but rather it is his right to take the initiative before the reward is defeated for him. It is not explicitly obligatory, but it contains the prohibition.

The questioner:
Their saying that no one.

The Shaykh:
So it is not his right to be lenient; it is his right to be strict with it.
