What are the best ongoing charities (Sadaqah Jariyah) for the deceased? Is contributing to building a mosque or giving charity to the poor and orphans by purchasing coupons considered an ongoing charity? Is it necessary to continue paying monthly, or is a one-time payment sufficient? Is placing prayer rugs in prayer areas considered an ongoing charity for the donor and his father after their passing?

Building mosques and contributing to them, giving charity to orphans and the poor in a way that its benefit remains, and donating prayer rugs as waqf for worshippers—all of these are considered ongoing charity (sadaqah jariyah) whose reward reaches the deceased if the doer intends it on their behalf. This applies even if it is done through coupons, as long as the funds are spent on what was mentioned and the entity acts as an agent for the one giving charity. It is not a condition for this to be paid monthly. As for what is consumed and its benefit does not remain, it is not ongoing charity.
