The ruling on dedicating the reward of reciting the Qur'an to others

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. The questioner says in one of her questions: I complete a recitation of the Qur'an every month, and I intend that it be for me, for my mother, and for my father, because they do not know how to read or write. Is that permissible for me?

Answer:
There is no evidence for intending the reward of the Qur'an for others. However, it is prescribed to make du'a' (supplication) upon completing the recitation of the Qur'an, so you supplicate to Allah the Exalted for yourself, for your parents, and for whoever you wish. You supplicate to Allah the Exalted upon completing the recitation for whomever you choose, and the most deserving of that are the parents and relatives. Yes.
