Dedication of the reward of charity to one's parents and designating a specific day for it

Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, Sister Umm Aymun asks: What is the evidence regarding this, Honorable Shaykh? Regarding the dedication of the reward of righteous deeds to one's parents, since my father and mother have passed away several years ago, and I prepare food on Mondays and Thursdays and send it to the workers at the stations, who are hired laborers?

Answer:
Yes, charity on behalf of the deceased is a good matter, and there is evidence for it. Likewise, supplication for them, and Hajj and 'Umrah performed for them; there is evidence that this is dedicated to the deceased and reaches them, if Allah the Exalted accepts it. However, one should not designate Monday and Thursday specifically, because the need is constant. The need of the poor is constant; they need it every day. So, send them food on whatever day is convenient. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good, Honorable Shaykh.
