Hope for the Acceptance of a Supplication That Contains No Sin and No Severing of Ties
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner from Dammam says in this question: I heard that the supplication of a wife is accepted if she is supplicating for her deceased husband. Is the supplication of the children accepted according to the hadith:?
Answer:
Yes, the supplication of every Muslim is accepted if it contains no sin and no severing of family ties. It is accepted from the wife, from the parents, from the child, and from others. Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) has promised acceptance in it. He, the Exalted, says: [Ghafir:60]. And if the righteous child, or the righteous wife, or the righteous father, or the righteous mother supplicates, acceptance is hoped for, based on the hadith mentioned by the questioner. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Riyad as-Salihin 1383.
Likewise, if others supplicate for him, the intention is not to restrict it. Even the supplication of the father, the supplication of the mother, the supplication of the brothers, and the supplication of others is hoped to be accepted, if it is from a righteous person; then acceptance is hoped for, whether for a relative or a non-relative. Because Allah, the Exalted, says: [Ghafir:60] (Exalted and Majestic is He). And He, the Exalted, says: [Al-Baqarah:186] (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.

When a servant dies, his deeds are cut off except for three, among which is the righteous child who supplicates for him
إذا مات العبد انقطع عمله إلا من ثلاث منها: الولد الصالح الذي يدعو لهAnswer:

Call upon Me; I will respond to you.
ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْWhen a man dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: Sadaqah Jariyah (ceaseless charity); a knowledge which is beneficial, or a virtuous descendant who prays for him (for the deceased).
إذا مات ابن آدم انقطع عمله إلا من ثلاث: صدقة جارية، أو علم ينتفع به، أو ولد صالح يدعو لهLikewise, if others supplicate for him, the intention is not to restrict it. Even the supplication of the father, the supplication of the mother, the supplication of the brothers, and the supplication of others is hoped to be accepted, if it is from a righteous person; then acceptance is hoped for, whether for a relative or a non-relative. Because Allah, the Exalted, says:
Call upon Me; I will respond to you.
ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْAnd when My servants ask you, [O Muhammad], concerning Me - indeed I am near. I respond to the invocation of the supplicant when he calls upon Me
