I did not know it was biddah.We routinely offer Fateha for the dead, and I did so. Yes, she was Muslim and so am I.

For those who do not know, it is a Quranic prayer, similiar to the Lord's Prayer recited by Christians.

I don`t know anything about Fateha .
But Benazir`s death eliminated any last chance of Pakistan of remote resemblance of democracy.
My prayer is for Pakistanis.

Asalam Alaikum dear sister
This is biddah.
Praise be to Allaah.
There is no evidence (daleel) for reciting al-Faatihah or any other part of the Qur’aan and giving (the reward for) it to the deceased. We must not do that, because it was not narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) or his companions (may Allaah be pleased with them) did any such thing. It is prescribed to make du’aa’ for the dead Muslims and to give charity on their behalf by giving to the poor and needy. In this way a person may draw closer to Allaah and ask Him to give the reward for that to his father, mother or other people, deceased or alive. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “When a man dies, all his deeds come to a halt apart from three: ongoing charity (sadaqah jaariyah), beneficial knowledge or a righteous child who will pray for him.”

What is Fateha?
Insha'Allah if you can explain to me.

Could you please give me some info on reciting Fatihah for the dead? I'm thinking it is not permissable.
Thanks.
EDIT: Thanks umm Ali, I was pretty sure that it was biddah. Thanks for the confirmation.
So my answer to the original question would be, "No I am not going to recite al Fatihah for Bhutto because it is biddah to do so."

I did, and I asked Allah to forgive her sins because I guessed she was a Muslim. was she?
omer!
I don't know her in person and I don't read about her too much until today. that's why I asked.
