RE: Passing reward to the dead

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

Is it permissible to perform nafl salah for Allah and pass the reward of it to the dead? One woman here I was told performs 2-rakat nafl and passes the reward to one of her relatives…

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,

There is agreement among the 4 Sunni schools that one may donate the reward of some or all one’s actions to some or all believers, living or dead. [Ibn al-Humam, Fath al-Qadir]

See archives for details.

Wassalam,

Faraz Rabbani
