Q 7:
Is it permissible for me to give Sadaqah (voluntary charity) on behalf of my parents
or not? Some people slaughter animals on behalf of their parents every year. What is your opinion on this?
A:
It is permissible for you to slaughter an animal as a Sadaqah on behalf of your parents, but without slaughtering it by their graves or fixing a time for it, such as the time when their funeral took place or their burial, or at the beginning of the week or the year. This would be considered a Bid`ah (innovation in religion). As for the sacrificial animal, it should be slaughtered in its Shar`y (Islamically lawful) time.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
