It seems that he is very swiftly becoming like the Mu’tazilah. (Mishkat, Kitabul Fitan) This shows that one can pray 2 units of prayer and then send the reward for someone else.ĭr Zakir Naik has said many controversial things. In a Hadith narrated in Mishkatul Masabeeh, Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah radiallahu Anhu requested a group of pilgrims who came from Basrah that when they go back, they would pray two units of salah in Masjid Al Ashshaar and say “هذه لابي هريرة” “These are for Abu Hurayrah”. Our Akabir (elders) have always given sadaqah on behalf of the deceased, recited Quran for them, and sacrificed animals on their behalf. We don’t need to bring an individual daleel for it. This ruling of Isaale Thawaab (sending thawaab) is also one upon which there has been a consensus among the Ummah. The Sahaba radiallahu anhum were the most knowledgeable people of this Ummah and the further you go away from the era of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam, you will find a gradual decrease in knowledge. They might not have had so much information available as we have today, however, their knowledge of Deen was much more solid and profound. Our elders were much more pious and God fearing than us. ![]() Similarly, most aspects of our Deen have been passed on to us through Tawaaruth. When I started teaching Mishkatul Masabeeh, I came upon the hadith, “And gather your children at nightfall, because the shayateen spread out at that time.” My mother’s words echoed in my mind. ![]() If we asked our mothers the daleel for that, they would not be able to provide it. There is no need to look for an individual daleel (proof) for them.įor example, when we were young, our mothers would always call us in the house at Maghrib time. There are some aspects of our Deen which have been passed on through توارث Tawaaruth (continuance inheritance). What you have heard from your elders is the correct thing. Is this correct? We have always heard from our elders that isaale sawab should be done for the deceased. The only thing you can do for them is dua.Ĭheck on YouTube ‘Reading Quran for deceased is Bid’ah’ ![]() You can not recite the Quran and give the sawab to a deceased person. I heard Dr Zakir Naik say that there is no such thing as sending thawab for the deceased.
