Question:
Among the questions from this questioner, he says: After the death of the deceased, one week later, the family of the deceased holds a walimah (wedding feast) and calls it: sadaqah (voluntary charity). Is this action permissible, and does it reach the deceased?
Answer:
No, this is a religious innovation and is not permissible; this is a mourning gathering and is not permissible. Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) ibn Abdullah al-Bajali, the noble Companion, said: "We used to consider gathering for the family of the deceased and preparing food after the burial to be wailing." It is not acceptable. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
