اللهُـمِّ اغْفِـرْ لَهُ وَارْحَمْـه ، وَعافِهِ
وَاعْفُ عَنْـه ، وَأَكْـرِمْ نُزُلَـه ، وَوَسِّـعْ مُدْخَـلَه ،
وَاغْسِلْـهُ بِالْمـاءِ وَالثَّـلْجِ وَالْبَـرَدْ ، وَنَقِّـهِ مِنَ
الْخطـايا كَما نَـقّيْتَ الـثَّوْبُ الأَبْيَـضُ مِنَ الدَّنَـسْ ،
وَأَبْـدِلْهُ داراً خَـيْراً مِنْ دارِه ، وَأَهْلاً خَـيْراً مِنْ
أَهْلِـه ، وَزَوْجَـاً خَـيْراً مِنْ زَوْجِه، وَأَدْخِـلْهُ الْجَـنَّة
، وَأَعِـذْهُ مِنْ عَذابِ القَـبْر وَعَذابِ النّـار
156. Allaahum-maghfir lahu warhamhu, wa 'aafihi, wa'fu 'anhu, wa 'akrim
nuzulahu, wa wassi' mudkhalahu, waghsilhu bilmaa'i waththalji walbaradi,
wa naqqihi minal-khataayaa kamaa naqqaytath-thawbal-'abyadha
minad-danasi, wa 'abdilhu daaran khayran min daarihi, wa 'ahlan khayran
min 'ahlihi, wa zawjan khayran min zawjihi, wa 'adkhilhul-jannata, wa. 'a'ithhu

O
Allah, forgive him and have mercy on him and give him strength and
pardon him. Be generous to him and cause his entrance to be wide and
wash him with water and snow and hail. Cleanse him of his transgressions
as white cloth is cleansed of stains. Give him an abode better than his
home, and a family better than his family and a wife better than his
wife. Take him into Paradise and protect him from the punishment of the
grave [and from the punishment of Hell-fire].

O
Allah forgive our living and our dead , those who are with us and those
who are absent, our young and our old , our menfolk and our womenfolk. O
Allah, whomever you give life from among us give him life in Islam, and
whomever you take way from us take him away in Faith . O Allah , do not
forbid us their reward and do not send us astray after them.

الَّلهُـمِّ إِنَّ فُلانَ بْنَ فُلانٍ في ذِمَّـتِك ، وَحَبْـلِ جِـوارِك ، فَقِـهِ مِنْ فِتْـنَةِ الْقَـبْرِ وَعَذابِ النّـار ، وَأَنْتَ أَهْلُ الْوَفـاءِ وَالْـحَقِّ ، فَاغْفِـرْ لَهُ وَارْحَمْـهُ ، إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الغَـفورُ الـرَّحيم
158. Allaahumma 'inna [name the person] fee thimmatika, wa habli
jiwaarika, faqihi min fitnatil-qabri wa 'athaabin-naari, wa 'Anta
'ahlul-wafaa'i walhaqqi. Faghfir lahu warhaw.hu 'innaka 'Antal-Ghafoorur-Raheem.
O
Allah, surely [name the person] is under Your protection, and in the
rope of Your security, so save him from the trial of the grave and from
the punishment of the Fire. You fulfill promises and grant rights, so
forgive him and have mercy on him. Surely You are Most Forgiving, Most
Merciful.

اللهُـمِّ عَبْـدُكَ وَابْنُ أَمَـتِك، احْتـاجَ إِلى رَحْمَـتِك، وَأَنْتَ
غَنِـيٌّ عَنْ عَذابِـه، إِنْ كانَ مُحْـسِناً فَزِدْ في حَسَـناتِه،
وَإِنْ كانَ مُسـيئاً فَتَـجاوَزْ عَنْـهُ
159. Allaahumma 'abduka wabnu 'amatika ihtaaja 'ilaa rahmatika, wa 'Anta
ghaniyyun 'an 'athaabihi, 'in kaana muhsinan fazid fee
hasanaatihi, wa 'in kaana musee'an fatajaawaz 'anhu.
O
Allah, Your male slave and the child of Your female slave is in need of
Your mercy , and You are not in need of his torment . If he was pious
then increase his rewards and if he was a transgressor then pardon him.
