What should I say in supplication for my deceased mother?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : All right, my Shaykh, regarding a person whose mother has passed away, when I make supplication for her, should I say, for example, "O Lord, forgive my mother so-and-so"?
The Shaykh : It is not necessary; He knows her.
The questioner : I mean, I do not say the word "my mother."
The Shaykh : Say "my mother"; do not say "so-and-so."
The questioner : Yes, just "my mother."
The Shaykh : "O Lord, forgive me and my parents."
The questioner: Yes.
