Studies reveal that 70% of wealth is depleted by the first generation and 90% by the third. Many neglect the importance of a lasting legacy that pleases Allah, offering ongoing benefits and rewards after death—whether through ceaseless charity, imparting beneficial knowledge, or nurturing righteous descendants who pray for them.
Unlike worldly legacies, the hereafter holds eternal significance. Islam emphasizes initiating good deeds, ensuring that even after being forgotten by the third generation, one’s contributions remain valuable in the eyes of Allah. Join us to explore the significance of deeds that never go in vain, no matter how big or small.

37:41 if deeds truly end at death except a few acts, why do so many muslims live as if leaving wealth and children alone guarantees ongoing reward, while ignoring whether their charity knowledge or legacy actually continues to benefit anyone
I love you for the sake of Allah may Allah make you among the best of the ummah

Ways to earn good deeds
even after death
Prophet Mohammad (ﷺ) Said:👇🏿
When a man dies, his deeds come to an end except for 3 things:
1. Sadaqa Jariyah (Continuous Charity)
2. Knowledge which will benefit others
3. A righteous child who prays for him."
Sahih Muslim 4223
Some more ways to earn even after your death.
1. Give a copy of the Qur'an to someone. Every time they read from it, you gain.
2. Donate a wheelchair to a hospital. Each time a sick person uses it, you gain.
3. Teach someone to recite a Dua.
4. Sharing islimic content
5. Participate in building a Mosque.
6. Place a water cooler/ well in a public place.
7. Plant a tree. You gain whenever a person or animal sits in its shade or eats from it.
8. And the easiest of all, share this message with people. Even if one
person applies any of the above,
you gain.
Also copy & share with others

Salaams Br and Sh Belal Assaad, please do a lecture on “Sirat Al Mustaqeem” and explain what it means to be on it and what it means to go astray. Thank you JAK🙏
Assalamu Alaikum sheikh, may Allah bless you . I'm a parent of an Autistic kid , Alhamdulilah. I would gently ask if you can make a hutbah about this kind of disorder, maybe I'm asking too much but would really appreciate if you do it. By the way I'm writing from Italy. May Allah grant you and your dear one Jannatul Firdaws🤲
Salamu Alaikum Bellal Assad brother, I am currently living in one of European countries. I have found cooking in a restaurant. There they order me to cook pork or pour alcohol inside food. Since i am Muslim, this issue is bothering me. Please tell me brother whether i have to leave the job or not or maybe inside the kitchen i get the tasks like slicing onions or other ingredients instead of touching and slicing Haram meats?? Please Please answer my question it is really vital for me. I am waiting for your reply
جزاک الله خیر

May Allah Bless you 💓
Can you do a speech about our souls before we came here? Where were we actually? How were we? I want to know more about before we came for the test of this DUNYA. You are very humble Sir, may Allah be pleased with you.
Allahuma baarak brother.
May Allah be pleased with Sheikh Belal Assad ❤ Ameen!
he honestly helped me change my life and be a better Muslim.
I was in a dark place and there was no hope. I came across one of his talks on Islam channel many years ago it was the prophet series. I searched his name thankfully and found all his khutbas.
Truly eloquent in his speech and humble man Allah humma barik lahu.
May Allah unite him with his loved ones in Jannah and keep him happy here and in the next life to Ameen.
Love you all for the sake of Allah.
As salaamu Alaykum
I need he’s e-mail to send him thanks you note
Sheikh, Would you please start a series of Quran Tafseer? PLEASE….
Assalamualikum, I have a question.The thing is – if you want to get married in China, you need a matchmaker to act as an intermediary to introduce the man and woman. The custom is to first take the gift money (it is the money for the gift, not مهر) and go to the woman's house to explain the man's situation and then both parties agree. However, neither party has the testimony of إيجاب and قبول nor directly. If the marriage is just an engagement and the man regrets the engagement after a period of time, is this considered a real marriage? If it is a formal marriage, the man has to give half of the woman's money. If it is not considered a formal marriage, the woman has to return the man's money. This question is the opposite here, so I don't understand it.
I think everyone wishes to have you as a father figure. I have learned so much from you and you are a role model. Thankyou❤
Can we please get a quran recitation I could listen to your recitation non stop and you would get soo much reward pls 😭
