The reciter: And Nasr ibn Ali al-Juhdhami and Ishaq ibn Ibrahim, both of them, narrated from Isa ibn Yunus from Abu Hamzah al-Himshi. And Abu al-Tahir and Harun ibn Sa'id al-Ayili narrated to me, and the wording is that of Abu al-Tahir, both of them saying: Ibn Wahb narrated to us, saying: Amr ibn al-Harith informed me from Abu Hamzah ibn Sulaym from Abd al-Rahman ibn Jubayr ibn Nufayr from his father from Awf ibn Malik al-Ashja'i, who said:
I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when he prayed over a funeral, saying: "O Allah, forgive him and have mercy on him, pardon him and grant him well-being, honor his lodging, widen his entrance, wash him with water, snow, and ice, purify him from sins as a white garment is purified from dirt, and exchange his home for a better one, his family for a better one, and his wife for a better one, and protect him from the trial of the grave and the punishment of the Fire." Awf said: I wished that I were the one who died, for the supplication of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) over that deceased.
سمعت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وصلى على جنازة يقول اللهم اغفر له وارحمه واعف عنه وعافه وأكرم نزله ووسع مدخله واغسله بماء وثلج وبرد ونقه من الخطايا كما ينقى الثوب الأبيض من الدنس وأبدله داراً خيراً من داره وأهلاً خيراً من أهله وزوجاً خيراً من زوجه وقه فتنة القبر وعذاب النار قال عوف فتمنيت أن لو كنت أنا الميت لدعاء رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم على ذلك الميت
