Janazah Doa

Allahum'maghfir lihayyina wa mayyitina wa shaahidina wa gha'ibina wa sahgeerina wa kabeerina wa dhakarina wa unthana Allahum'ma man ahyaytahu (ha) mina fa ahyahu (ha) `alal-Islam wa man tawaffaytahu (ha) minna fa tawaffahu (ha) `alal-Iman

"O Allah! Forgive our living and our dead and our present and hidden and our elders and our children and forgive our men and women. O Allah! Those whom you keep alive from us, keep them alive on Islam and those from us whom you give death, give them death on Imaan. O Allah! Pardon him and have Mercy on him and Forgive him"

Allahummaghfir lahu warhamhu wa `afihi wa 'afu `anhu wa akrim nuzulahu wa was'a madkhalahu wa aghsilhu bil ma'i wath thalji wal baradi wa naq'ihi minal khataaya kama yunaq'qa thaubal abyadu min ad-danasi wa abdilhu daaran khairam min daarihi wa ahlan khairam min ahlihi wa zawjan khairam min zawjihi (wa adkhil hul jannata wa a'izhu min `adhab il-qabri wa fitnatihi wa min adhaab an-nar.)

"O Allah! Forgive him, and have Mercy on him and keep him in protection and forgive him. Let his arrival into the grave be a very respectable one, and broaden his resting place, and cleanse him from his sins with water, snow and hail".

(This d'ua is found in the Muslim, Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah and is also narrated by Abu Bakr ibn Shaiba and Auf bin Malik radi Allahu anhuma)

Note: If the deceased is a female, then in place of "Hu" one must read "Ha" eg, "ighfir lahu" becomes "ighfir laha" and the suffix "ka" denoting possession will become "ki" eg, "Dinika" will become "Diniki.

 ( Allahummaghfir laha warhamha wa `afiha wa 'afu `anha ).
