The Ruling on Watering the Grave and Placing Food for Birds Near It
Is it permissible to water the grave with water? What is the ruling on placing food for birds next to the graves, and does the deceased receive a reward for placing something that animals eat at their grave?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: There is no difference whether food is placed at a grave or in another place for birds or others, if the intention is to reward the deceased with this act, and God knows best.
