I heard the Prophet ﷺ say (while offering prayer on a dead body): O Allah! forgive him, have mercy upon him. Give him peace and absolve him. Receive him with honour and make his grave spacious. Wash him with water, snow and hail, cleanse him from faults as is cleaned a white garment from impurity. Requite him with an abode more excellent than his abode, with a family better than his family, and with a mate better than his mate, and save him from the trial of the grave and torment of Hell. 'Auf b. Malik said: I earnestly desired that I were the dead person to receive the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as this dead body had (received).

I heard it from 'Auf b. Malik that the Prophet ﷺ said prayer on the dead body, and I remembered his prayer:" O Allah! forgive him, have mercy upon him, give him peace and absolve him. Receive him with honour and make his grave spacious; wash him with water, snow and hail. Cleanse him from faults as Thou wouldst cleanse a white garment from impurity. Requite him with an abode more excellent than his abode, with a family better than his family, and with a mate better than his mate. Admit him to the Garden, and protect him from the torment of the grave and the torment of the Fire." ('Auf bin Malik) said: I earnestly desired that I were this dead body.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed over a funeral, and I memorized his supplication in which he said, "O Allah, forgive him, have mercy on him, grant him good health, pardon him, honor his abode, enlarge his entrance, cleanse him with water, snow, and hail, purify him from sins as a white garment is cleansed from dirt, replace his home with a better one, his family with a better one, and his spouse with a better one. Enter him into paradise and protect him from the punishment of the grave and the punishment of the fire." Until I wished that I was that deceased person.

صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى جَنَازَةٍ فَحَفِظْتُ مِنْ دُعَائِهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ «اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ وَارْحَمْهُ وَعَافِهِ واعْفُ عَنْهُ وَأَكْرِمْ نُزُلَهُ وَوَسِّعْ مُدْخَلَهُ وَاغْسِلْهُ بِالْمَاءِ وَالثَّلْجِ وَالْبَرَدِ وَنَقِّهِ مِنَ الْخَطَايَا كَمَا يُنَقَّى الثَّوْبُ الْأَبْيَضُ مِنَ الدَّنَسِ وَأَبْدِلْهُ دَارًا خَيْرًا مِنْ دَارِهِ وَأَهْلًا خَيْرًا مِنْ أَهْلِهِ وَزَوْجًا خَيْرًا مِنْ زَوْجِهِ وَأَدْخِلْهُ الْجَنَّةَ وَأَعِذْهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ وَمِنْ عَذَابِ النَّارِ» حَتَّى تَمَنَّيْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ أَنَا ذَلِكَ الْمَيِّتُ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed with us on the funeral of a man from the Ansar. I heard him say, "O Allah, send blessings upon him, forgive him, have mercy on him, grant him good health, pardon him, honor his place of reception and his dwelling, wash him with water, snow, and hail, purify him from sins as a white garment is purified from impurities, replace his home with a better home, and his family with a better family. Protect him from the trials of the grave and the punishment of the Fire." Awf said, "Indeed, I saw myself desiring that in my dream, to be the deceased in place of that Ansari man, when I witnessed the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ."

I heard the Prophet ﷺ say (while offering prayer on a dead body): O Allah! forgive him, have mercy upon him. Give him peace and absolve him. Receive him with honour and make his grave spacious. Wash him with water, snow and hail, cleanse him from faults as is cleaned a white garment from impurity. Requite him with an abode more excellent than his abode, with a family better than his family, and with a mate better than his mate, and save him from the trial of the grave and torment of Hell. 'Auf b. Malik said: I earnestly desired that I were the dead person to receive the prayer of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as this dead body had (received). (Using translation from Muslim 963d)

O Allah, give him a house better than his house and a family better than his family and a wife better than his wife, and admit him to Paradise and save him from Hellfire)."
