The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “When a person dies, all his deeds come to an end except three:
Sadaqah jaariyah (ongoing charity, e.g. a waqf or endowment),
Beneficial knowledge (which he has left behind),
or a righteous child who will pray for him.”
(Reported by al-Tirmidhi, no 1376; he said this is a saheeh hasan hadeeth)
What friends and relatives can do is to strive to pray for them and ask for forgiveness and mercy for them, and for Paradise and salvation from the Fire.
