26. "The best of which man can leave behind for himself are three: a righteous child who supplicates for him, an ongoing charity whose reward continues to reach him and knowledge which others benefit from after him." [Ibn Hibbân, Hasan]

Quotes to remember

6. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ repeated three times, “Those who search deeply for confusing questions have perished.”(Muslim)

Salafs sayings

Abu ad-Dardaa narrated [Saheeh Muslim, No.6588]: The Messenger of Allaah said: «No believing servant supplicates for his brother behind his back (in his absence), except that the Angels say: "The same be for you too".»
al-Imaam an-Nawawee comments [Riyaadh as-Saaliheen #1494]: This hadeeth makes it evident that one who prays for someone in his absence also stands to benefit from it because the angel appointed for the task of praying for those who pray for others will pray for him, saying, "O Allaah! Grant him also the same which he has asked for others".

Eating dates for Eid Prayer when it is perfromed in the Musallaa of Fajr

Question:

When people perform the prayer of Eid ul-Fitr in the musallaa of Fajr prayer, should they eat the dates of iftaar before they go to the Fajr prayer or is it better to return back to the family and then proceed out again for the Eid prayer?
Answer:

When it is not possible to return, we say do not leave the house without eating (at the time of Fajr), since by your departure you have intended to leave for the prayer of Fajr and Eid.
