My family (Hyderabadi from India) does fatiha on the yearly barsi (death anniversary). They also do a “duswaan” (10th day after death), “chehloom” (40th day)…

**I personally do not suscribe to these practices, but when my mother passed away, I did not say anything when my mom’s family wanted to hold these. **After the first year though, my siblings and I did not continue the practice. It’s been 5 years now, and on the anniversaries of my parent’s deaths I give sadaqa and try to do a charitable act in their memory instead.

It did happen in my family too…
