If someone says, "My land or my garden is Ṣadaqa for Allāh's sake on my mother's behalf," his Ṣadaqa is valid even if he did not specify to whom it is to be given.

2756. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās رضي الله عنهما: The mother of Sa'd bin 'Ubāda died in Sa'd's absence. He said, "O Allāh's Messenger! My mother died in my absence; will it be of any benefit for her if I give Ṣadaqa(1) on her behalf?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes," Sa'd said, "I make you a witness that I gave my garden called Al-Mikhrāf in charity on her behalf."

Arabic text

2756 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلاَمٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَخْلَدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي يَعْلَى، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عِكْرِمَةَ، يَقُولُ: أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: أَنَّ سَعْدَ بْنَ عُبَادَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ تُوُفِّيَتْ أُمُّهُ وَهُوَ غَائِبٌ عَنْهَا، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أُمِّي تُوُفِّيَتْ وَأَنَا غَائِبٌ عَنْهَا، أَيَنْفَعُهَا شَيْءٌ إِنْ تَصَدَّقْتُ بِهِ عَنْهَا؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ»، قَالَ: فَإِنِّي أُشْهِدُكَ أَنَّ حَائِطِيَ المِخْرَافَ صَدَقَةٌ عَلَيْهَا
