On the authority of Abu Hurayrah who said, the Messenger of Allaah (peace be upon him) said, "If a person dies, his actions cease except for three: A righteous child who makes du'aa for him, the continual charity that remains after he has died , and beneficial knowledge (that benefit people from)."
Saheeh Muslim
"Imaam Ibnul Qayyim has also mentioned that which is similar to this:
Many Prophets and pious people have died before the Messenger (peace be upon him) and many of his Companions (May Allah be pleased with them) died within his lifetime including Sa'd bin Mu'aadh (may Allah be pleased with him), regarding whom he (peace be upon him) said:
'The Arsh became happy by the death of Sa'd bin Mu'aadh' [Saheeh Bukhari]
And many of his relatives and dear friends died in his presence. Some were even martyred, such as his uncle Hamza bin 'Abd al-Mutallib, his cousin, Ja'far bin Abee Taalib, brother through breast feeding 'Uthmaan bin Maz'oon and Ayman and Abu Salamah, and from his pure wives Khadeejah, Zaynab bint Khuzaymah, his mother in law Zaynab bint Maz'oon, mother of Hafsah bin Umar, his sons Qaasim, Tayyib and Ibraheem, his daughters Ruqaiyyah, Umm Qulthoom, Zaynab, his nephew 'Alee bin Zaynab, 'Abdullah bin Ruqaiyyah and Zaid bin Haaritha, whom he regarded as his son; all died while he was alive. Yet he did not recite the Qur'aan and send its reward for any of them. Similarly in many battles many of the Companions were martyred which included scholars, jurists, ascetics and worshippers but he did not recite the Qur'aan and send its reward for any one of them, nor did he indicate that it should be done."

"The pious predecessors were careful, as Haafidh Ibn Wadhaah al_Andaloosee said:
"Asad narrated to us a Hadeeth from Rabee' bin Sabeeh who narrated on Yunus bin 'Ubayd, who said:
Some people had gathered and Hassan(may Allah be pleased with him) came to them. One man said, 'O Abu Sa'eed, What do you say regarding this gathering of ours? We are a few people from Ahlus-Sunnah wal Jamaa'ah who do not criticize anyone, we gather one day in this house and another day in that house, we recite the book of Allaah, and we supplicate to our Lord, we send salawaat (praise and blessings) upon the Prophet (peace be upon him), we supplicate for ourselves and for the Muslims.' He said, 'Hassan forbade them from doing this with a severe forbiddance.'""
