assing reward to others , living or deceased (Isaal-e-Thawab)
There is nothing wrong with passing the reward of good deeds to family, friends and other Muslims whether they are dead or alive and it is hoped in the Mercy of Allah (SWT) that they will Insha'Allah be benefitted.
Three specific scenarios which benefit:
Rasul-ullah (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) has specifically spoken about three specific scenarios by which the dead can benefit after their death.
حدث ىا ي ح يى ب ه أي وب وق ت ي بت ي ع ىي اب ه س ع يد واب ه حجر ق ال وا حدث ىا إ سم ع يل هو اب ه ج ع فر عه
إذا ماث الإو سان او قطع ع ىه عمل ه ال علاء عه أب يه عه أب ي هري رة أن ر سول الله ص لى الله ع ل يه و س لم ق ال
إلا مه ث لاث ت إلا مه صدق ت جاري ت أو ع لم ي ى ت فع ب ه أو ول د صال ح ي دعو له
Sayyidina Abu Huraira (RA) reported Allah's Messenger (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) as saying: When a man dies, his acts come to an end, but three, recurring charity, or knowledge (by which people) benefit, or a pious son, who prays for him (for the deceased). [Muslim]
Donating a garden in charity to the mother:
{jb_bluebox}Sayyidina Ibn 'Abbas (RA) narrated that mother of Sad bin 'Ubada (RA) died in his absence. He (RA) said, "O Allah's Apostle (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam)! My mother died in my absence; will it be of any benefit for her if I give Sadaqa on her behalf?" The Prophet (Sallaho
Alaihe Wassallam) said, "Yes," Sad said, "I make you a witness that I gave my garden called Al Makhraf in charity on her behalf." [Bukhari] {jb_bluebox}
Charity by children relieves the burden of sin of parents:
The earth is forbidden from decomposing the bodies of the prophets of Allah (AS).
{jb_bluebox}Sayyidina Abu Huraira (RA) reported that a person said to Allah's Apostle (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam): My father died and left behind property without making any will regarding it. Would he be relieved of the burden of his sin if I give sadaqa on his behalf? He Allah's Apostle (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said: Yes.[Muslim]{jb_bluebox}
Performing Hajj on behalf of old Father :
{jb_bluebox}Sayyidina Abdullah bin Abbas (RA) narrated that Al-Fadl (his brother) was riding behind Allah's Apostle (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) and a woman from the tribe of Khath'am came and Al-Fadl started looking at her and she started looking at him. The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) turned Al-Fadl's face to the other side. The woman said, "O Allah's Apostle (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam)! The obligation of Hajj enjoined by Allah on His devotees has become due on my father and he is old and weak, and he cannot sit firm on the Mount; may I perform Hajj on his behalf?" The Prophet (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) replied, "Yes, you may." That happened during the Hajj-al-Wida (of the Prophet ). [Muslim]{jb_bluebox}
Fasting on behalf of the dead:
{jb_bluebox}Sayyida'Aisha (RA) narrated that Allah's Apostle (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) said, "Whoever died and he ought to have fasted (the missed days of Ramadan) then his guardians must fast on his behalf." [Bukhari] {jb_bluebox}
Reward of all beneficial and good deeds:
From the cross-section of Ahadeeth of Rasul-ullah (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam) Scholars have concluded that there is no restriction on the nature, type and number of optional good deeds which can be performed with the intention of passing the reward to other Muslims and the
reward of the doer is not diminished in the least. There is no restriction because no specific restriction has been placed by Allah (SWT) or by Rasul-ullah (Sallaho Alaihe Wassallam).
