English translation
3696. It was narrated from Sa'd bin 'Ubâdah that his mother died. He said: "O Messenger of Allâh, my mother has died; can I give charity on her behalf?" He said: "Yes." He said: "What kind of charity is best?" He said: "Providing drinking water." And that is the drinking-fountain of Sa'd in Al-Madīnah. (Da'if)
