The Evidence for the Specific Benefit of the Deceased from Certain Deeds

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: What is the evidence for specifying their benefit from certain deeds rather than others?

A: These matters are based on divine legislation, and there is no room for personal opinion in them; rather, one acts in them according to what the evidence requires, due to the generality of the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
'A'isha reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: He who innovates things in our affairs for which there is no valid (reason) (commits sin) and these are to be rejected.من أحدث في أمرنا هذا ما ليس منه فهو رد
Sahih Muslim 1718a
It is agreed upon that it is authentic.
