ذِكْرُ مَا يَدْعُو الْمَرْءُ بِهِ فِي الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى الْجَنَائِزِ

he heard the Prophet say, when offering the funeral prayer for one who had died: Allahummighfir lihayyina wa mayyitina wa shahidina wa gha'ibina wadhakarina wa unthana wa saghirina wa kabirina (O Allah, forgive our living and our dead, those who are present among us and those who are absent, our males and our females, our young and our old).  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ فِي الصَّلاَةِ عَلَى الْمَيِّتِ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا  

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed over a dead person, he said: O Allah, forgive those of us who are living and those of us who are dead, those of us who are present and those of us who are absent, our young and our old, our male and our female. O Allah, to whomsoever of us Thou givest life grant him life as a believer, and whomsoever of us Thou takest in death take him in death as a follower of Islam. O Allah, do not withhold from us the reward (of faith) and do not lead us astray after his death.  

صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى جَنَازَةٍ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ أَحْيَيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَأَحْيِهِ عَلَى الإِيمَانِ وَمَنْ تَوَفَّيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَتَوَفَّهُ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ اللَّهُمَّ لاَ تَحْرِمْنَا أَجْرَهُ وَلاَ تُضِلَّنَا بَعْدَهُ  

from his father who said: "When the Messenger of Allah would perform the Salat for the funeral he would said: (Allahammaghfir li-hayyina wa mayyittina, wa shahidina wa gha'ibina, wa saghirina wa kabirina, wa dhakarina wa unthana) 'O Allah! Forgive our living and our deceased, our present and our absent, our young and our old, our male and our female.'"  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا صَلَّى عَلَى الْجَنَازَةِ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا قَالَ يَحْيَى وَحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَزَادَ فِيهِ اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ أَحْيَيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَأَحْيِهِ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ وَمَنْ تَوَفَّيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَتَوَفَّهُ عَلَى الإِيمَانِ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ وَعَائِشَةَ وَأَبِي قَتَادَةَ وَعَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ وَجَابِرٍ  

“When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ offered the funeral prayer he would say: ‘Allahummaghfir lihayyina wa mayyitina, wa shahidina wa gha’ibina, wa saghirina wa kabirina, wa dhakarina wa unthana. Allahumma man ahyaitahu minna fa'ahyihi ‘alal-Islam, wa man tawaffaytahu minna fa tawaffahu ‘alal- iman. Allahumma la tahrimna ajrahu wa la tudillana ba’dah. [O Allah, forgive our living and our dead, those who are present and those who are absent, our young and our old, our males and our females. O Allah, whomever of us You cause to live, let him live in Islam, and whomever of us You cause to die, let him die in (a state of) faith. O Allah, do not deprive us of his reward, and do not let us go astray after him].’”  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا صَلَّى عَلَى جِنَازَةٍ يَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ أَحْيَيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَأَحْيِهِ عَلَى الإِسْلاَمِ وَمَنْ تَوَفَّيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَتَوَفَّهُ عَلَى الإِيمَانِ اللَّهُمَّ لاَ تَحْرِمْنَا أَجْرَهُ وَلاَ تُضِلَّنَا بَعْدَهُ  

[Machine] "Indeed, the Prophet of Allah, ﷺ , used to say when praying for the deceased: 'O Allah, forgive our living and our dead, our elders and our youth, our males and our females, our present and our absent.'"  

أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا صَلَّى عَلَى الْجِنَازَةِ قَالَ اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا وَصَغِيرِنَا وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا  

he heard the Prophet say, when offering the funeral prayer for one who had died: Allahummighfir lihayyina wa mayyitina wa shahidina wa gha'ibina wadhakarina wa unthana wa saghirina wa kabirina (O Allah, forgive our living and our dead, those who are present among us and those who are absent, our males and our females, our young and our old). (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1986)   

أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ فِي الصَّلَاةِعَلَى الْمَيِّتِ اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا  

[Machine] The Prophet of Allah ﷺ used to say the following supplication when praying for the deceased: "O Allah, forgive our living and our dead, those who are present and those who are absent, our males and our females, our young and our old." Yahya said that Abu Salama bin Abdul Rahman narrated this hadith from the Prophet ﷺ and added: "O Allah, whoever of us you keep alive, let him live in Islam, and whoever of us you cause to die, let him die in faith."  

أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا صَلَّى عَلَى الْمَيِّتِ قَالَ اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا قَالَ يَحْيَى وَحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَزَادَ فِيهِ اللهُمَّ مَنْ أَحْيَيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَأَحْيِهِ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ وَمَنْ تَوَفَّيْتَهُ فَتَوَفَّهُ عَلَى الْإِيمَانِ  

[Machine] "He (the Prophet ﷺ) witnessed a funeral and heard him (the deceased) say, 'O Allah! Forgive our living and our dead, and our present and our absent, and our young and our old, and our males and our females.' Abu Salama narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said these eight words, and added two more: 'Whoever you revive among us, revive them on Islam, and whoever you cause to die among us, let them die upon faith.'"  

أَنَّهُ شَهِدَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ صَلَّى عَلَى مَيِّتٍ فَسَمِعَهُ يَقُولُ اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بِهَؤُلَاءِ الثَّمَانِ الْكَلِمَاتِ وَزَادَ كَلِمَتَيْنِ مَنْ أَحْيَيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَأَحْيِهِ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ وَمَنْ تَوَفَّيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَتَوَفَّهُ عَلَى الْإِيمَانِ  

“When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ offered the funeral prayer he would say: ‘Allahummaghfir lihayyina wa mayyitina, wa shahidina wa gha’ibina, wa saghirina wa kabirina, wa dhakarina wa unthana. Allahumma man ahyaitahu minna fa'ahyihi ‘alal-Islam, wa man tawaffaytahu minna fa tawaffahu ‘alal- iman. Allahumma la tahrimna ajrahu wa la tudillana ba’dah. [O Allah, forgive our living and our dead, those who are present and those who are absent, our young and our old, our males and our females. O Allah, whomever of us You cause to live, let him live in Islam, and whomever of us You cause to die, let him die in (a state of) faith. O Allah, do not deprive us of his reward, and do not let us go astray after him].’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1498)  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا صَلَّى عَلَى الْجِنَازَةِ قَالَ اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِحَيِّنَا وَمَيِّتِنَا وَشَاهِدِنَا وَغَائِبِنَا وَصَغِيرِنَا وَكَبِيرِنَا وَذَكَرِنَا وَأُنْثَانَا اللهُمَّ مَنْ أَحْيَيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَأَحْيِهِ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ وَمَنْ تَوَفَّيْتَهُ مِنَّا فَتَوَفَّهُ عَلَى الْإِيمَانِ  

[Machine] He witnessed the Prophet ﷺ praying for a deceased person, and I heard him saying, "O Allah, forgive our living and our deceased, our present and our absent, our young and our old, our males and our females." Yahya said, and Abu Salamah added to it, "O Allah, whoever among us you cause to live, make him live according to Islam, and whoever among us you cause to die, let him die upon faith."

[Machine] "He (Prophet Muhammad ﷺ) witnessed a funeral and heard him say, 'O Allah, forgive our living and our dead, our present and our absent, our young and our old, our males and our females.'
