حديث عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ: إِنَّ أُمِّي افْتُلِتَتْ نَفْسُهَا وأَظُنُّهَا لَوْ تَكَلَّمَتْ تَصَدَّقَتْ، فَهَلْ لَهَا أَجْرٌ إِنْ تَصَدَّقْتُ عَنْهَا قَالَ: نَعَمْ.
A'isha Narrated from:
A man said to the Prophet ﷺ, "My mother died suddenly and I thought that if she had lived she would have given in charity. So, if I give alms now on her behalf, will she get the reward?" The Prophet ﷺ replied in the affirmative. ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 470, Vol. 2 )
