We think that our deceased ones cannot earn the rewards after their death. But our last Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught us these 5 ways to make the dead ones earn rewards.

## **1. Offering the Janazah**

It is very important for everyone to pray Salat al Janazah. And this thing really benefits the dead.

## **2. Benefit from the Charitable work he or she has done in their lifetime**

This is the second thing which helps the dead person earn rewards from the [Sadqah e Jariah](https://theislamicinformation.com/blogs/ways-give-charity-without-money/) he has done in his lifetime.

This includes the following things:

- Teaching other people (As in giving knowledge).
- Built any mosque (As in added his share in the construction).
- Any place built to help the unprivileged.
- And includes other charity works.

## **3. Supplications done by the deceased offsprings (i.e. Children)**

The children of the one passed away can be the source of earning a great number of rewards for the dead ones. If the children do any good work or pray or teach it will earn their dead some rewards.

## **4. Fulfilling the promises made by the deceased ones and paying their debts**

Paying debt of the dead is a must, the children or brothers or any relative of the dead should find out and pay all the debt, and fulfill all the promises etc. including his Will.

## **5. Making Dua for them**

Whenever you visit graves of your loved ones, do make a dua for them, it really benefits them. Our prophet Muhammad PBUH used to make dua while visiting [Jannat ul Baqee](https://theislamicinformation.com/blogs/famous-graves-in-jannat-ul-baqi/).
