One scholar relates that in the season of Hajj after
completing the acts of worship he did Tawaf, going
round the Kaaba seven times and prayed two units of
prayers at Maqaame Ibrahim (A.S.) for another scholar.
When he went home, the same night he saw the scholar
whom he had gifted the acts of worship, come in his
dream and thank him for his kindness, a proof that
these acts reach the dead. (AL AMWAAT YATAKALLAMOONA
