Question: Can we recite the Quran and dedicate the reward to the Prophet ﷺ, and if so, how should we dedicate it verbally?
Answer: The Prophet ﷺ is deceased, and you cannot recite the Quran and dedicate its reward to him or any other deceased person. Nowhere in the Quran or Hadith is it mentioned that the reward of reciting the Quran should be dedicated to the deceased.
