Question:
The phrases “May Allah envelop him in His mercy” and “he has passed to the mercy of Allah.”
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that; because “May Allah envelop him in His mercy” is a supplication, and supplication for a Muslim is required whether he is alive or dead. “May Allah envelop him in His mercy,” or saying “he has passed to the mercy of Allah,” is also permissible; because it is a form of optimism for him, and it also includes supplication for his mercy. Yes.
