Commemorating the Fortieth Day of Death
Respected scholars, As-Salamu `alaykum. My question is as follows: Recently my father died, and the different opinions came from different people. Some of them say that there is no concept of Qur’an Khwani (an invitation to collective recitation of the Qur’an) exactly on the 40th day. However, it can be done on any day before the expiry of 40 days. Hence, I want to know what does the Hadith say on this issue, whether it should be on exactly 40th day or before or it should not be at all. Jazakum Allah khayran.
