What did the Prophet (pbuh) say about Sadaqah on Behalf the Deceased?

The mother of Sa’d bin 'Ubada died in his absence. He said, "O Allah's Apostle! My mother died in my absence; will it be of any benefit for her if I give Sadaqah on her behalf?" The Prophet (pbuh) said, "Yes," Sa’d said, "I make you a witness that I gave my garden called Al Makhraf in charity on her behalf." (Sahih Al Bukhari  Volume 4, Book 51, Number 19)

In another hadith narration: A woman said: “Apostle of Allah, my mother suddenly died; if it had not happened, she would have given Sadaqah (charity) and donated (something). Will it suffice if I give Sadaqah on her behalf?” The Prophet (pbuh) said: “Yes, give Sadaqah on her behalf. “(Abu Dawood #2875)
