In fact, Rasulullah, Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam, slaughtered 100 sheep during his farewell Hajj and made intention for himself and all those (alive, deceased and to come) who bring faith on his prophethood. Abu Talha gave his most valuable well and garden, Bi’r Haa as charity on behalf of his deceased mother. One specific incident is of Sayyidna Abu Talha, Radi-Allahu Anhu, when the Ayah, ‘You cannot attain virtue until your spend what is beloved to you…’ (Nisaa 4). On numerous occasions, Nabi, Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam, advised the Sahabah, Radi-Allahu anhum, to give charity on behalf of the deceased. Isaal-e-Sawaab (to perform a virtuous act and grant the reward to any person, alive or deceased) is permissible. What makes us believe that there are other ways to benefit the person who has deceased through Isaal-e-Thawaab? Ģ. Q.) 1) What is the Islamic justification of the assumption that Quran Khawani for a deceased person benefits that person? Is there evidence of this practice during the life of the Holy Prophet, Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam? If not, why is it not a bid'at? How can this benefit the deceased person in the light of Q2 below?Ģ) What is the meaning of Isaal-e-Thawab? I have come across a hadith that read (paraphrased): After death only three things can benefit a person: 1) sadaqa 2) knowledge that he spread, 3) children who pray for him. If you are not able to attend then please make Dua'a for the deceased sister and Sabr (patience) for family. Please spread the word and make every attempt to attend. There will be a special Du'a and dinner will be be served, insha-Allah. 11th, 2016 starting at 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm (Zuhr to Maghrib prayer) at the Islamic Community Center of Lancaster (275 Hess Blvd, Lancaster, PA 17601). There will be Quran Khwani for Isaal-e-Thawab this Sunday, Dec. We also pray for the soul and ask Allah (s.w,t.) to expand and enlighten her grave with His Noor (Light) and grant highest place in Jannathul-Firdous (paradise), Ameen. إِنَّا لِلّهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعونَ May Allah (s.w.t.) grant the entire family mercy (Rahmah), patience (Sabr) and comfort during this difficult and trying time. Rehan Sibgatullah passed away peacefully while visiting India. On this solemn occasion we offer our deepest sympathies and sincere condolences to the family.
