1024. Abū Ibrāhīm Al-Ashhālī narrated from his father who said: "When the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would perform the Ṣalāt for the funeral he would say: (Allāhummaghfir li-hayyinā wa mayyitinā, wa shāhidinā wa ghā'ibinā, wa saḡīrinā wa kabīrinā, wa dhakarinā wa unthānā) 'O Allāh! Forgive our living and our deceased, our present and our absent, our young and our old, our male and our female.'" (Sahīh) Yāhya said: "Abū Salamah bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān narrated from Abū Hurairah, from the Prophet ﷺ, what is similar to that, but he added: (Allāhumma man ahyyaitahu minnā fa ahyihi 'alal-Islām, wa man tawaffaitahu minnā fatawaffahu 'alal-Imān) 'O Allāh! Whoever among us You cause to live, make him live upon Islām, and whomever among us You cause to die, make him die upon faith.'" (He said:) There are narrations on this topic from 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin 'Awf, 'Aishah, Abū Qatādah, Jābir. and 'Awf bin Mālik. Abū 'Eisā said: The Hadīth of the father of Abū Ibrāhīm is a Ḥasan Ṣahīh Hadīth. Hishām Ad-Dastawā'ī and 'Alī bin Al-Mubārak reported this Hadīth from Yāhyā bin Abī Kathīr from Abū Salamah bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān, from the Prophet ﷺ, in Mursal form. ‘Ikrimah bin ‘Ammār reported it from Yahyā bin Abī Kathīr, from Abū Salamah, from ‘Aishah, from the Prophet ﷺ. But the narration of ‘Ikrimah bin ‘Ammār is not preserved. Sometimes ‘Ikrimah is mistaken with the narrations of Yahyā. It has also been reported from Yahyā bin Abī Kathīr, from ‘Abdullāh bin Abī Qatādah, from his father, from the Prophet ﷺ. Abū ‘Eīsā said: I heard Muḥammad saying: “The narration of this Hadīth of Yahyā bin Abī Kathīr that is the most correct is the one from Abū Ibrāhīm Al-Ash-hali, from his father.” He said: And I asked him about the name of Abū Ibrāhīm Al-Ash-hali, but he did not know it.
