Al-Kafi 4557

Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Hammad Bin Isa, from Hareyz, from Muhammad Bin Muslim, from one of the two (5^th or 6^th Imam^asws) having said: ‘When the deceased is placed in his chasm (<span class="iTxt">Lahad</span>), so say, ‘In the Name of Allah^azwj and in the Way of Allah^azwj, and upon the Religion of Rasool-Allah^saww. Your^azwj servant, son of Your^azwj servfant has lodged with You^azwj and You^azwj are the best of the Hosts with him. O Allah^azwj! Expand for him in his grave, and Attach him with Your^azwj Prophet^azwj. O Allah^azwj! We do not know from him except for goodness, and Your^azwj are more Knowing with him. So when the slab is placed upon him, say, ‘O Allah^azwj! (Grant) companionship for his loneliness, and calmness for his fear, and Setlle upon him a Mercy from Your^azwj Mercies which would suffice him from (all) mercies besides Yours^saww’. So when you come out from his grave, say, ‘We are from Allah^azwj to Him^azwj are we returning, and the Praise is for Allah^azwj, Lord^azwj of the worlds. O Allah^azwj! Raise his leves in the high Illiyeen and Make a successor to be among his remaining offspring, O Lord^azwj of the worlds’.
