حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ جَنَاحٍ، حَدَّثَنِي يُونُسُ بْنُ مَيْسَرَةَ بْنِ حَلْبَسٍ، عَنْ وَاثِلَةَ بْنِ الأَسْقَعِ، قَالَ: صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَأَسْمَعُهُ يَقُولُ " اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ فُلاَنَ بْنَ فُلاَنٍ فِي ذِمَّتِكَ وَحَبْلِ جِوَارِكَ فَقِهِ مِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْقَبْرِ وَعَذَابِ النَّارِ وَأَنْتَ أَهْلُ الْوَفَاءِ وَالْحَقِّ فَاغْفِرْ لَهُ وَارْحَمْهُ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ " .

Abd al-Rahman ibn Ibrahim al-Dimashqi narrated to us; al-Walid ibn Muslim narrated to us; Marwan ibn Janah narrated to us; Yunus ibn Maysarah ibn Halbas narrated to me, from Wathilah ibn al-Asqa‘, who said: ‘The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed the funeral prayer for a Muslim man, and I heard him say: “O Allah, so-and-so son of so-and-so is under Your covenant and protection. Protect him from the trial of the grave and the punishment of the Fire. You are worthy of fulfilling promises and are the Truth. So forgive him and have mercy on him; surely You are the All-Forgiving, the Most Merciful.”’
