What are the deeds whose reward reaches the deceased? Does planting a tree at the grave lighten the burden on the deceased and earn reward? Is seeing the deceased in Paradise after death a reality? Are visions seen in dreams concerning the deceased, such as hunger, thirst, and anger, real, and does the deceased know about them? Is it permissible to give charity on behalf of the deceased by slaughtering a feast and inviting people with the intention that its reward reaches him?
Planting trees at the grave is not permissible. Seeing the deceased in a good state or in Paradise is often a good vision. The deceased benefits from every righteous deed whose reward is dedicated to him, including charity, prayer on his behalf, fasting on his behalf, and reciting the Qur'an and gifting its reward to him.
