3 Deeds Continue After Death Hadith
إِذَا مَاتَ الإِنْسَانُ انْقَطَعَ عَمَلُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ ثَلاَثَةٍ مِنْ صَدَقَةٍ جَارِيَةٍ وَعِلْمٍ يُنْتَفَعُ بِهِ وَوَلَدٍ صَالِحٍ يَدْعُو لَهُ
When a man dies all his good deeds come to an end except three: Ongoing charity (Sadaqah Jariyah), beneficial knowledge and a righteous son who prays for him.

The 3 Deeds Continue After Death Hadith is an Islamic Hadith which states that three deeds will continue to be beneficial for a person even after their death. These three deeds are charity, knowledge, and a righteous child that prays for them. The Hadith is recorded in the collection of ibn Majah, and is narrated from Abdullah, a companion of the Prophet Muhammad.
In it, he states that “Three things follow the deceased: charity he gave, knowledge he taught, and a righteous child who prays for him.” The Hadith is often used to encourage people to do good deeds and to be generous in charity, as these will benefit the person even after they pass away. It also serves as a reminder that knowledge and education are important and should be prioritized in life.
Finally, it encourages people to raise their children in a righteous manner and to instill in them the values of prayer and faith. The Hadith serves as a reminder that our deeds will never be forgotten and will always have a lasting impact, even after we are gone. It is an important reminder to always strive to do good and to leave a positive legacy behind.
