[2232] 85 - (963) It was narrated that Jubair bin Nufair said: "I heard 'Awf bin Mâlik say: The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ offered the funeral prayer and I memorized some of his supplications. He said: "Allâhmma ghfirlahu wârhamhu wa 'âfihi, wâ'fu 'anhu, wa akrim nuzulahu wa wassi' mudkhalahu wâghsilhu bil-mâ'i wath-thalji wal-baradi wa naqqihi min al-khaṭayâ" kamâ naqqaitath-thawbul-abyada min ad-danasi wa abdilhu dâran khairan min dârihi, wa ahlân khairan min ahlîhi wa zawjâ khairan min zawjihi, wa adkhilhuljannata wa a'idhhu min 'adhâbil-qabri wa min 'adhâbin-nâr (O Allâh, forgive him, have mercy on him, keep him safe and sound, and pardon him, receive him with honor, make his grave spacious, wash him with water, snow and hail, and cleanse him of his sins as a white garment is cleansed of dirt. Give him a home better than his home, a family better than his family, a spouse better than his spouse. Admit him to Paradise and protect him from the torment of the grave and the torment of the Fire.)" He said: "Until I wished that I had been that deceased person." A similar Hadîth was also narrated from 'Awf bin Mâlik, from the Prophet ﷺ.

85 - (963) وحَدَّثَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْأَيْلِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ، سَمِعَهُ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ عَوْفَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، يَقُولُ: صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى جَنَازَةٍ، فَحَفِظْتُ مِنْ دُعَائِهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: «اللهُمَّ، اغْفِرْ لَهُ وَارْحَمْهُ وَعَافِهِ وَاعْفُ عَنْهُ، وَأَكْرِمْ نُزُلَهُ، وَوَسِّعْ مُدْخَلَهُ، وَاغْسِلْهُ بِالْمَاءِ وَالثَّلْجِ وَالْبَرَدِ، وَنَقِّهِ مِنَ الْخَطَايَا كَمَا نَقَّيْتَ الثَّوْبَ الْأَبْيَضَ مِنَ الدَّنَسِ، وَأَبْدِلْهُ دَارًا خَيْرًا مِنْ دَارِهِ، وَأَهْلًا خَيْرًا مِنْ أَهْلِهِ وَزَوْجًا خَيْرًا مِنْ زَوْجِهِ، وَأَدْخِلْهُ الْجَنَّةَ وَأَعِذْهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْرِ - أَوْ مِنْ عَذَابِ النَّارِ -» قَالَ: «حَتَّى تَمَنَّيْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ أَنَا ذَلِكَ الْمَيِّتَ»
