Chapter on Walking with the Funeral and Praying Over It

Zujajat al-Masabih 2111Volume 1

English

Awf ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) prayed over a funeral, and I memorized his supplication. He said: 'O Allah, forgive him, have mercy on him, grant him safety, pardon him, honor his reception, widen his entrance, wash him with water, snow, and hail, and cleanse him of sins as You cleanse a white garment of dirt. Replace his home with a better one, his family with a better one, and his spouse with a better one. Admit him to Paradise, and protect him from the torment of the grave and the torment of the Fire.'" In another narration: "Protect him from the trial of the grave and the torment of the Fire." Awf said: "I wished I were that deceased person."
