Is it true that if a person does hifz al Quran, that his parents are granted paradise?
Answer
Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) mentioned, 'The parents of the child that completed Hifz will be honoured with such crowns that will shine brighter than the sun.' (Abu Dawud)
It can be deduced from this Hadith that they will be granted paradise.
And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
