Aug 20, 2019 at 21:00 comment added Mordechai I could hear that it's NOT allowed. If the son saying the tehilim is as if the mother was saying tehilim, and she isn't Jewish, it might be like teaching Torah to a non-Jew. But living a proper life according to Halacha is by itself an iloy neshama, and probably this would apply even to his technically unrelated mother.

Dec 12, 2018 at 14:55 comment added Dude It was not understood which is why I asked. You would improve your question by clarifying this as well as adding why you think there is an issue with saying tehillim for someone not jewish

Dec 11, 2018 at 19:30 comment added Dude His mother isn't Jewish then he isn't Jewish. Is he a convert or did his mother think she was able to convert out of being Jewish? Just asking bc the question is unclear at the moment. Either way what makes you think praying for someone would not be allowed bc they aren't Jewish?
