Question 1

Can I give Sadaqah Jariyah for a deceased person?

akhtar · Accepted Answer

Yes. You can give it for your parents, spouse, friend, or even someone you never met. The reward will reach them, and you’ll be rewarded too.

Question 2

Can knowledge be Sadaqah Jariyah?

akhtar · Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Teaching someone how to pray, how to give Zakat, or how to read Qur’an — if they go on to teach others, your reward continues too.

Question 3

Do I need to be rich to give Sadaqah Jariyah?

akhtar · Accepted Answer

Not at all. Even helping someone learn how to read Qur’an, or contributing £1 to a shared project, counts.

Question 4

Does donating online still count as Sadaqah Jariyah?

akhtar · Accepted Answer

Yes — as long as the cause leads to ongoing benefit. Make sure the project is legitimate and long-lasting.

Question 5

Is Sadaqah Jariyah better than regular Sadaqah?

akhtar · Accepted Answer

Both are good, but Sadaqah Jariyah continues to bring reward even after death. It’s ideal for leaving a legacy.
