Essale  sawaab

And those who believe and whose families follow them in Faith, — to them We shall join their families: nor shall We deprive them of the fruit of anything of their works: yet each individual is in pledge for his deeds. (Surah Toor 52:21).”

By making Esaale Sawaab, it gives comfort to the deceased, pleases them, saves them from the torment of the grave, elevates their status and causes benefit to the sender as well as the receiver.

And those who came after them say, “O our Lord! Forgive us, and our brothers who accepted faith before us, and do not keep any malice in our hearts towards the believers – O our Lord! Indeed You only are the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful.”. (Surah Hashr 59:10)

“O our Lord! And forgive me, and my parents, and all the Muslims on the day when the account will be established.” (Surah Ibrahim 14:41)

And lower your wing humbly for them, with mercy, and pray, “My Lord! Have mercy on them both, the way they nursed me when I was young.” (Surah Bani Israel 17:24)

All the Ulama-e-Haq and the Buzrugaan-e-Deen hold the belief that to send Esaale Sawaab to the souls of the deceased is permissible.

It is permissible for a Muslim to send the Sawaab of his deeds, such a Salaah, Saum, Zakaah, Hajj, Sadaqa, etc. to others. (Hidaya)

If a person kept Fast, performed his or her Salaah, or gave Sadaqa and then sent this Sawaab to another person, either living or deceased, then to do so is permissible, and that Sawaab reaches the said person. (Bahrur Raa’iq)

We should send the Sawaab of our actions to the deceased, since in reality one cannot perform Salaah and keep fast for another person or on his behalf, but we can send the Sawaab of our actions to them.

Whosoever makes Khatam of the Holy Quran and then makes Du’a, 4 000 Angels say Aameen on his Du’a. They then continue making Du’a for him and they continue asking blessings for him until the morning or afternoon. (Tafseer Roohul Bayaan)

At the time of Khatam Shareef, there is a flow of mercy and to make Du’a after completing the Quran is Mustahab.

When Hazrat Anas (ra) used to complete the Holy Quran, then he would call all his family and friends and make Du’a. (Jila’ul Afhaam)

Hazrat Sa’ad ibn Ubaadah (ra) once came to the Prophet (ﷺ ) and said: “Ya Rasoolallah (ﷺ )! My mother has passed away. What can I do for Esaale Sawaab?” The Prophet (ﷺ ) said: “Prepare a well for water”. When the well was prepared, Rasoolullah (ﷺ ) went close to the well and made Du’a: “This is for the Esaale Sawaab for the mother of Saad”. While making this Du’a, he raised his hands high, and after Du’a, he turned his hands over his blessed face.

It is allowed to make Du’a in front of the Niyaz (offering), as this is what the Prophet (ﷺ ) did by coming close to the well to make Du’a.

It is allowed to lift up the hands for Du’a and to end the Du’a by turning the hands over the face.

It is preferable to call a pious person to make the Du’a.

To make Fateha on Niyaz is allowed. If it were not, then the Prophet (ﷺ ) would not have made Du’a near the water, but would have said that the intention was sufficient.

For the person to obtain the Sawaab, it is not necessary to feed the Niyaz first, but Du’a can be made before this since the Prophet (ﷺ ) made Du’a even before any person drank out of the well.

When making Fateha, one should follow the proceedure of the pious Saints. When making the Fateha, send the Sawaab to the Prophet (ﷺ ), the pious servants, the Companions, and then through their blessing, ask for it to be sent to the soul of the deceased. This is the prescribed method, and this is the method that the Ahle Sunnah has always followed.

When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
