Answer
- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
There are two things to note here, one is to feed those who come to the home of the deceased to console or sympathize with the family of the deceased. The other is feeding the people in the name of thawab in Isal. In the first case, the Shari'ah command is to go to one's family immediately after one's death and offer one's condolences to them. Listening to the words of consolation, it is the work of great reward. Of course, if there is an excuse, it can be delayed. And it is sunnat for those who come to offer condolences to prepare food for the family of the deceased. But nowadays it has become a bad season in our country that relatives who come to comfort them are fed from the house of the deceased like a feast, it is makrooh and najaiz. And there are many abominable deeds in our country in the name of thawab in Isal, which is completely baseless, bid'at and fabrication in the eyes of Shariat. Arranging food and drink for the rich and the poor, including relatives, dignitaries of the area on certain days, such as Trisha, Challisha, etc., reciting the Qur'an in exchange for money Etc. Organizing and attending such events is both bid'at and najaiz. Rather, the correct method of thawab risani is that the heirs of the deceased person should finish the Qur'an from time to time with the intention of reaching thawab personally by reciting dua-darood or by offering sawaab. And when he can afford it, he will feed the poor, the orphans and the helpless with his wealth, donate clothes, money, etc. And for the purpose of forgiveness, he will continue to do good deeds including Jariyah in charity. 5686873745
