Question:
Is there a segula to undertake qualities of the niftar?
Answer:
Hello,
There is an idea brought that after a tzaddik is niftar (and it should apply to other too), that the maalos that the person had, are now “up for grabs”, and it is easier to acquire the positive points of the person who was niftar, by working on those qualities. Therefore, it is definitely a good idea. Besides that, it is a tremendous zechus for the niftar, if people will learn from his or her ways, and follow in their positive ways. This gives them a tremendous zechus in shomayim.
Therefore, it is great thing to do.
