Hadith 60
Funerals (Kitab Al-Jana'iz)
Narrated Wathilah ibn al-Asqa':
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) led us in prayer over bier of a Muslim and I heard him say: O Allah, so and so, son of so and so, is in Your protection, so guard him from the trial in the grave. (AbdurRahman in his version said: "In Your protection and in Your nearer presence, so guard him from the trial in the grave) and the punishment in Hell. You are faithful and worthy of praise. O Allah, forgive him and show him mercy. You are the forgiving and the merciful one." AbdurRahman said: "On the authority of Marwan ibn Janah."
