Description :
Dedicating Rewards to the Deceased is a new title from the prolific translator, Shaykh Mahdi Lock.
Synopsis : If a person were to supplicate, recite the Noble Qur?an, give to charity, or do any other act of worship and righteousness, and then dedicate the reward for that deed to someone deceased from this Ummah and ask Allah the Exalted to make it reach that deceased person, is such an action legitimate? And does the reward for that deed reach that deceased person?
Includes Appendices from :
*** Imam Jalal al-Din as-Suyuti,
*** Imam Yahya an-Nawawi,
*** Imam Wahbah az-Zuhayli.
This book is an attempt to put an end to a debate that actually ended several centuries ago. That is, it ended among the 'Ulama,' those who are qualified to speak on the matter, and yet, for some reason, it has been revived in recent times. As you will see in the book and in the appendices, the early generations did indeed differ over whether the reward for reciting the Qur'an reached the deceased, but over time they came to be of one accord; the reward for reciting the Qur'an does indeed reach the deceased and it is the mu'tamad position of all Four Schools.
