Hazrat Abu Hurairah (R. A.) has related that a man came to the Prophet and said, “My father is no more and he left some property/ wealth in legacy about which has not willed any thing. If I give some of it as Sadaqah on his behalf, will it serve a means for the expiation of his sins and salvation.” He said, “Yes” (Insha’ allah) {Tahzib-ul-A’asar from Ibn Jarir}
