Question

What is the English terminology for ?Bakhashna??

Answer

To make Isaal-e-Sawaab (pass reward) by performing acts of virtue, giving Sadaqaat reciting Qur'aan, etc. is proven from the Hadith. Hadhrat Sa'd (Radhiallaahu Anhu) and said, 'Umm Sa'd (mother of Sa'd) passed away. What should I do?' Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, 'Dig a well (in order to provide water).' Hadhrat Sa'd dug a well and said, 'This (the water of the well) is for the reward of Umm Sa'd.' (Mishkaat - Chapter of Sadaqah).

One may do any act of charity within one's means.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
