اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَأَصْحَابِهِ أَجْمَعِينَ، وَارْحَمْ أُمَّتَهُ وَاغْفِرْ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ، وَارْزُقْنَا التَّوْبَةَ وَالإِخْلَاصَ فِي الدُّعَاءِ
اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِوَلَدِنَا وَارْحَمْهُ وَعَافِهِ وَاعْفُ عَنْهُ، وَأَكْرِمْ نُزُلَهُ وَوَسِّعْ مَدْخَلَهُ، وَجَافِ الأَرْضَ عَنْ جَنْبَيْهِ، وَنَوِّرْ قَبْرَهُ، وَاجْعَلْهُ فِي رَحْمَتِكَ الَّتِي وَسِعَتْ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ
