The Eternal Return of Giving • Hadith Sharif

"إِذَا مَاتَ الْإِنْسَانُ انْقَطَعَ عَنْهُ عَمَلُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ ثَلَاثَةٍ: إِلَّا مِنْ صَدَقَةٍ جَارِيَةٍ، أَوْ عِلْمٍ يُنْتَفَعُ بِهِ، أَوْ وَلَدٍ صَالِحٍ يَدْعُو لَهُ"

"When a person dies, all their deeds come to an end except three: Sadaqah Jariyah (continuous charity), beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for them."
