This lecture clarifies the permissibility of dedicating the reward of charitable deeds to others, specifically deceased parents or loved ones. It distinguishes between financial donations, where transferring the reward is acceptable, and acts of worship like prayer and Quran recitation, where the reward belongs solely to the worshipper. The speaker emphasizes that dedicating worship directly to anyone other than Allah constitutes shirk (associating partners with God) and renders the act impermissible. Financial charity’s reward can be transferred, but the reward for obligatory worship remains with the individual performing it.
