Question:
As-salam-alaikum
I was wondering if one can give sadaqa on behalf of someone as a request that they may find Islam InshAllah. I have a friend who seems that they can be Muslim, but is not. Is that possible to do? I know we can pray for guidance for them, but then I thought..why not sadaqa as well. Please let me know. JazakAllah Khair.
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
Yes, you can give sadaqa on behalf of someone as a request that he may find Islam Insha-Allah.
