Answer
To make Isaal-e-Sawaab (pass reward) by performing acts of virtue, giving
Sadaqaat reciting Qur’aan, etc. is proven from the Hadith. Hadhrat Sa’d
(Radhiallaahu Anhu) and said, ‘Umm Sa’d (mother of Sa’d) passed away. What
should I do?’ Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, ‘Dig a well (in
order to provide water).’ Hadhrat Sa’d dug a well and said, ‘This (the water
of the well) is for the reward of Umm Sa’d.’ (Mishkaat – Chapter of
Sadaqah).
One may do any act of charity within one’s means.
and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
