184 Subchapter: Reward written for the deceased if charity is given for him without a will
Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah 2499 — 184 Subchapter: Reward written
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاءِ بْنِ كُرَيْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ . ح وَحَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ جَمِيعًا , عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : قَالَ رَجُلٌ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ أُمِّي افْتُلِتَتْ نَفْسُهَا ، وَإِنِّي أَظُنُّهَا لَوْ تَكَلَّمَتْ أَوْصَتْ بِصَدَقَةٍ ، فَهَلْ لَهَا أَجْرٌ إِنْ تَصَدَّقْتُ عَنْهَا ؟ قَالَ : " نَعَمْ " ، قَالَ أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ : وَلَمْ تُوصِ وَإِنِّي لأَظُنُّهَا لَوْ تَكَلَّمَتْ لَتَصَدَّقَتْ
Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that a man said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), my mother has passed away suddenly, and I am certain that if (before dying) she could have spoken, she would surely have advised giving charity. If I give charity on her behalf, will she receive the reward?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Yes, she will receive the reward." In the narration of Abu Kuraib, it is mentioned: She did not make a will, but I am certain that if she could have spoken, she would surely have given charity.
