Can I do hifz al Quran with the intention of paradise for my parents?

Answered by 

My parents arent the best muslims in the world. They pray salat once in a while but they follow all of the other pillars of Islam. I pray for their hidayat InshAllah and I pray for them to recieve Jannah because they have been great muslim parents. Can I do Hifz so they will be garunteed Jannah? JazakAllah

Answer:

Your intention for doing hifz must be for the pleasure of Allah. Your
parents, Inshallah will receive what is known as (Sadaqatul Jariah) as
stated in a hadith that when a person dies, all his actions terminate except
3 things. One of these 3 things is a pious son that makes Du’aa for them.

So Inshallah if you continue to make Du’aa , may Allah accept you duas for
your parents and give them the highest status in Jannah . Ameen.

and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
