My son is completing his hifz.

Question

My son is completing his hifz. How should this occasion be celebrated?

Answer

There is no celebration, party, or the like when one's child completes Hifz. All celebrations and jalsahs in vogue nowadays to mark such occasions are bid'ah and riya. As a mark of shukr, one may silently contribute some money/food to the poor. But it should not be advertised.
