حَدَّثَنَا
خَلَفُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
أَيُّوبُ بْنُ عُتْبَةَ ، عَنْ
يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ ، عَنْ
أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ
أَبِي هُرَيْرَة ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا صَلَّى عَلَى الْجِنَازَةِ , قَالَ :
" اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا ، وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا ، وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا ، وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا ، اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ أَحْيَيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَأَحْيِهِ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ ، وَمَنْ تَوَفَّيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَتَوَفَّهُ عَلَى الْإِيمَانِ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led the funeral prayer, he would recite this supplication: O Allah, forgive our living and our deceased, those present and those absent, our young and our old, our men and our women. O Allah, whomever You keep alive from among us, keep him alive upon Islam, and whomever You cause to die from among us, cause him to die upon faith.
