اُردوEn
عَنْ وَاثِلَةَ بْنِ الْأَسْقَعِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ((اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ فُلَانَ بْنَ فُلَانٍ فِي ذِمَّتِكَ وَحَبْلِ جِوَارِكَ، فَقِهِ فِتْنَةَ الْقَبْرِ وَعَذَابَ النَّارِ، أَنْتَ أَهْلُ الْوَفَاءِ وَالْحَقِّ، اللَّهُمَّ فَاغْفِرْ لَهُ وَارْحَمْهُ فَإِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Wathilah bin Asqa’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) making this supplication at a funeral: “O Allah! So-and-so, son of so-and-so, is in Your protection and the rope of Your neighborhood, so protect him from the trial of the grave and the punishment of the Fire. You are the One worthy of loyalty and truth. O Allah! Forgive him and have mercy on him, for surely You are the Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.” (O Allah! So-and-so, son of so-and-so, is in Your protection and covenant of security, so save him from the trial of the grave and the punishment of the Fire. You are the One of loyalty and truth. O Allah! So forgive him and have mercy on him, for surely You are Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.)
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … In the narration of Musnad Ahmad, instead of "Allahumma," the words "Ala" are used; by this is meant making supplication (du'a) for the deceased.
