I am still waiting for a reply: Can I say in my duaa like this: “Ê Allah, mujhê mêrê marnê kê baad kabar mai Qurān ê Paak ki tilāwat kā sharaf hāsil farma. Āmīn.” Please reply me as early as possible. Jazākumullahu Khairā.
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salÃÂmu âÂÂalaykum wa-rahmatullÃÂhi wa-barakÃÂtuh.
The desire to supplicate such a duàis a sign of your immense love for reciting the QurâÃÂn. The English translation of the duàyou have mentioned is:
âOh Allah, grant me the honour of reciting the Holy QurâÃÂn in my grave after I die.â
This world is DÃÂrul-âAmal (the Abode of Action). As such, only those virtuous deeds acquired in oneâs lifetime are credited to oneâs Book of Deeds. In the Hereafter, which is DÃÂrul-JazÃÂâ (the Abode of Recompense), a person will only be rewarded for such actions carried out during oneâs lifespan. For this reason, a person should recite the QurâÃÂn abundantly until death overtakes him/her, and this is actual achievement.
As for your query, it would be permissible for you to make such a duà(supplication), since such a duàdoes not fall under the category of MustahÃÂlÃÂt (impossibilities).[1] Numerous incidents have been narrated showing the possibility of an inhabitant of the grave reciting the QurâÃÂn.[2] Although these narrations are of such a nature that they are not fit for evidence independently, they collectively serve as a proof of the common factor found in them, viz. the possibility of an inhabitant of the grave reciting the QurâÃÂn.
ImÃÂm al-Suyà «ti mentions a few incidents in his book: âBushrÃÂ-al-Kaëb-bi-LiqÃÂi-al-Habëbâ. Hereunder, we quote one of these accounts:
ùàçèàùèçó ÃÂçÃÂ: Ã¥àèùö ãõÃÂçè çÃÂÃÂèàìÃÂó ùÃÂàÃÂèñ ÃÂÃÂàÃÂç ÃÂÃÂóè ãÃÂàÃÂèñàÃÂÃ¥ðç ÃÂÃÂàÃÂ¥ÃÂóçàÃÂÃÂñã óÃÂñé çÃÂàÃÂàÃÂêàîêàÃÂçàÃÂãêàçÃÂÃÂèàõÃÂàçÃÂÃÂàùÃÂÃÂàÃÂóÃÂàÃÂãîèñÃÂ. ÃÂçàñóÃÂàçÃÂÃÂàõÃÂàçÃÂÃÂàùÃÂÃÂàÃÂóÃÂà: (ÃÂàçÃÂàçÃÂùéàÃÂÃÂàçÃÂàÃÂìÃÂé êÃÂìÃÂàààùðçè çÃÂÃÂèñ[3](.
Ibn AbbÃÂs (Radi-Allahu-âanhu) narrates that a SahÃÂbi sat on a grave (the narration of al-Tirmidhi mention: âpitched his tent on a graveâ) not knowing that it was a grave. Suddenly (he heard) a person inside the grave reciting Surah al-Mulk, until he (i.e. the inhabitant of the grave) completed it (i.e. Surah al-Mulk). So, this person came to Nabi (SallallÃÂhu Alaihi Wa Sallam) and informed him (about this experience). Nabi (SallallÃÂhu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, âIt (i.e. Surah al-Mulk) is the protector and it is the saviour from the punishment of the grave.) (p. 45, DÃÂru Yaârab)
We hereby make this duàas well: âOh Allah, give us the Taufeeq (Divine Guidance) to recite the QurâÃÂn abundantly in this world, and give us the honour of reciting it in the grave too.â ÃÂmën.
And Allah TaâÂÂÃÂla Knows Best
