Is it permissible to dedicate the recitation of the Quran to the deceased, and is it permissible for women to visit graves, based on evidence from authentic Sunnah, knowing that the permissibility of dedicating the Quran to the deceased was not mentioned in the Sunnah, unlike the mention of the permissibility of Hajj, fasting, and supplicating for them?

Authentic hadith have been reported concerning the permissibility of dedicating the reward of certain acts, such as Hajj, charity (sadaqa), and fasting, to the deceased. By analogy, the permissibility of dedicating the reward of reciting the Qur’an to the deceased has been appended to these, because whoever possesses something is permitted to dedicate it. As for the Almighty's saying: "And that man will not have except what he endeavors for" (Quran 53:39), it does not contradict the deceased benefiting from the acquired merit of another that has been dedicated to them. The hadith indicate that the deceased benefits from the charity of another on their behalf and from another performing Hajj on their behalf. The verse indicates that a person is not given the acquired merit of another, but if that other person dedicates their acquired merit, then it becomes of the same nature as their own acquired merit in terms of ways of benefiting from it. As for supplication (du’a’) and seeking forgiveness (istighfar) for the inhabitants of the graves, its desirability is confirmed by the hadith: "We ask Allah for well-being for us and for you," and the hadith: "Peace be upon you, O inhabitants of the graves; may Allah forgive us and you," and the hadith: "O Allah, forgive the inhabitants of Baqi’ al-Gharqad."
