What is the virtue of dying in the first ten days of Dhu al-Hijjah and on Friday, and does the reward for reciting the Quran and seeking forgiveness reach the deceased, and is it possible to fast, perform Hajj, and Umrah on their behalf, and does the soul know about its family, and does the deceased feel the visit to the grave?

"We have already discussed the virtue of dying on a Friday. As for dying during the first ten days of Dhu al-Hijjah, we are not aware of any specific virtue associated with it. However, dying in virtuous times, places, and circumstances does hold merit. We have previously addressed the issue of dedicating the reward of Qur'an recitation to the deceased and its reaching them. Seeking forgiveness for the deceased benefits them, avails them, and reaches them by Allah's will, serving as a means of alleviating their burden and forgiving their sins. We are not aware of any evidence indicating that it increases the deceased's good deeds, but if their bad deeds decrease, their good deeds will outweigh them. Fasting on behalf of the deceased, as well as performing Hajj and Umrah for them, reaches them by Allah's will, even if they had already performed Hajj or Umrah themselves. We have already discussed the soul's awareness of what the deceased's family does on their behalf and the deceased's feeling of those who visit them."
