Question

In our area, food is provided by the family of the deceased 30 days or 40 days after death in order to reach the soul of the deceased. It is attended by both the poor and the affluent. Now the question is will the well-to-do people be able to participate in this meal? We have heard that eating such food weakens the heart, what is the Shari'ah provision in this regard? 6991867278


Answer

- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -

We have to do everything according to the command of Allah and the way of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). It is through this that thawab can be expected. All acts outside the teachings of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) are acts of renunciation and sin. At present man is not saved from sin even after death. In the eyes of the Shari'ah, these acts are considered as bid'at and superstition by the relatives of the deceased who observe Rusam by arranging the food of Trisha and Chalisa. By this, not even a small amount of thawab reaches the soul of the dead person. Fatawa Shami mentions that almost all such works are done with an attitude of arrogance and ritualism. And even if there is no such attitude then, this attitude comes later. If the family of the deceased is rich, most of the rich are invited to it, not for the purpose of pleasing Allah. For this reason, it is better to keep the privacy of the poor and the orphans for the sake of thawab on any day in Isal, regardless of the date of the day, and to give alms to the poor students at Lillah Boarding (the thawab is much higher). However, such food should not be eaten from the Ijmali property of the heirs of the deceased. The adult heirs will arrange this meal from their own goods. 4632535389
